I was dead set against rubber liners for the cutterhead bucket until I saw my buddy's setup on a muddy job in Baton Rouge

He showed me how much less caking and downtime he had after switching, and after three days of zero cleanout stops I ordered a set that same night - anyone else given up on scraping and gone with liners?

Did you feel as dumb as I did when you finally saw how much easier your buddy had it?

Man, I hear you loud and clear. I spent way too many years on muddy jobs scraping that liner clean every 15 minutes, feeling like I was just a glorified janitor with a shovel. After I finally broke down and bought a set, I felt pretty dumb for how long I stuck with the old way. It was like I was punishing myself for no good reason. You gotta admit, when you go from constant cleanout to just dumping and moving on, it feels like cheating on easy mode. How long did your buddy have his liners before you finally caved?
