I really hate not being able to pick up logs and brushy stuff in the regular bucket, but my near-term use is popping roots of small (less than 6") trees. Will the tooth bar do that OK, do you think?

It seems most people go elsewhere for toothbars but I would make it easy and call Rick. Your bucket is 72" correct? If so Rick has one the will fit perfectly. I can see that there is any difference in the Markham vs. Woods toothbar to be honest.

Yep, Ill be posting pics of the roots I popped with it probably tomorrow. Too late tonight. I'm currently picking at a massive rootball now, the thing tilted and picked my whole tractor off the ground (almost 7k weight). I bent the bucket a little, but the toothbar is fine.
