on these debris forks by Northern tool, they have the T-handle clamp. See LINK: Load-Quip Steel Debris Forks — 1400-Lb. Capacity, Model# 29211774 | Bucket Accessories| Northern Tool + Equipment
Does anyone know if there's something commercially available that includes the swivel pad at the bottom?
Can fabricate it I suppose but was curious if there's a source.
McMaster Carr has "replacement swivel pads" for C-clamps but they require a ball end. They also have "mounting feet" that are threaded female for threaded rod, but generally the bottom of those is smooth and "non-serrated" like the one used on those debris forks.
I've got about 15 projects I want to do for bucket-mounted implements and I know for a fact the old man will **** a brick if I drill holes in his bucket. For the record, I'm not a high school kid (though at 45, I'm told I sometimes act like one) but it's "his" tractor and so I constantly have to worry about his nonstop worry that I'll break it. :laughing:
So the plan is to use both clamps and chain/chain binders to retain the implements.
One the projects I'm going to do with my new welder is probably build those exact debris forks, in theory anyway, for our tractor.
So if you know of anything or have come up with your own solution, let me know. Pictures are welcome too.
