Wood Chipper Flywheel Balancing Video

This video shows how I set the wood chipper flywheel shaft up on 4 small ball bearings attached to two short pieces of angle iron initially to check it for being out of balance. The flywheel was a bit heavy at one of the slots so I added a few beads of weld above the chipper blade support area of the opposite slot to correct the problem. Then I installed the two fan blades (which also act as counter balances at 90° to the slots) to make sure it stayed in balance and then finally the two chipper blades were installed. For those interested this link will take you to the posts I am making on the wood chipper modifications as it goes back together. https://www.gardentractortalk.com/threads/front-mounted-home-made-wood-chipper-on-a-bolens-1050-tube-frame-tractor-improvements-to-make-it-work-better.89400/
