That is nifty little backhoe you built!

It would be cool to see a walk around video of that and some action footage. You should be proud of your project. Looks great!

home built .... it ain't pretty but it works well.......

That is a pretty nice little BH. What is the front frame for, an FEL or do you use it for stability when using the BH?

yes it is for the FEL ... it got too cold to put the cylinders / spool / and hoses on last year before it snowed. the FEL bucket is to the left of the tractor ...


its only a 10 HP with a manual transmission and a PTO off the front.... the backhoe looked too large when fabbing up, but just about right when it got installed.

only real complaint is that I built the backhoe bucket too small ... 12" wide 12" deep by 20" front to back ... OK for trenching for a pipe but should be more like 20 " wide 10" deep by 20" for any real work....

another project for spring ...... buckets, can't have enough of them .... levelers, rippers ....:laughing:


I thank you all for the compliments... but there are much better home builds around .... and lots of nice machines / toys on the forum.

BigMoB I think that Long 1200 as more reach than most any backhoe attachment. When moving to keep digging do you just do it with the hoe?
