Default small thumb opinion
I was wondering if anyone has purchased, or has any thoughts on this thumb on ebay. It has a good track record, and has been on for awile. Thanks
I am considering the smallest one they offer.I have a bead of weld down the flat surface of the stick, that I assume ill have to grind a slight bevel in the backer plat when it comes.Not sure if anyone has had to deal with that either.

Allan, its not hydraulic, where you put it is where it stays. If you can use it? It looks real simple to make. Just my thoughts

And good thoughts too. I dont have a regular use of it to justify a hydraulic one. I have seen some homemade ones and I may make an aattemt to make one myself also.Thanks for the input

I don't know what you have but if you have a back hoe? its fine. I didn't see much in your profile as to what you have for tractor.
I have a bucket and 2 on top of my bucket would make my day.
