Today I modified my 4in1 for easier log and brush handling.
What I did was cut the top clam sides to form a tooth low on the bucket edge and added an outside tooth cut from 3/8 by 3 angle iron. I made the lower tooth 3 inches long and even with the dozer edge. This should give me an easier grab of logs and brush but make no impact on the dozer or bucket action. I made them short and strong as to not bend and a single tooth at the base of the clam side gives me a bit more of a finger/ thumb grip. I will try it out soon.
The standard ATI bucket worked but was a bit troublsome on large or irregular logs.
Attached is a finished picture of it. I would have taken a better one but the camera battery was going down.
