Does anyone know if there is an attachment for a FEL bucket that acts like the teeth part of a rock bucket (mounting on the lower edge of the FEL bucket kinda like a tooth bar but with the teeth extending out longer and closer together to capture the rocks on top of the teeth but let the dirt drop down between them just like a rock bucket) ?
Seems it would be cheaper than a rock bucket since its only the teeth and you would be using the FEL bucket to hold the captured rocks after periodically tipping the bucket upwards so the rocks roll off the teeth into the FEL bucket.
Rock buckets are too expensive, yet I've become convinced that they are the only way I'm going to efficiently get my fieldstone out of my pastures-to-be. I have heard from too many people that York/landscape rakes just don't cut it (especially for smaller 23HP tractors like mine).
I also think it would be pretty easy to cobble up a "rock bucket tooth bar" that would mount on the lower FEL bucket edge. Anybody done that and have any picutres ?
Thanks.
