yes, I later saw that was not just my idea because I later have seen 2 at farm auctions that others made. What I did not know (in your second link) is that they are also commercially manufactured. One thing I don't understand is what use they are unless you had them supported by wheels since a forlift lifts much more than a 3 point can handle. The mast itself is pretty heavy.

You could obtain a used mast assemble from a forklift place and add wheels that would support the weight you expect to lift.
I have a 40's or 50's clark forklift that was used at a small airport. It is extremely nice condition and works excellent after I fixed a couple small things. I bought it at auction for only 450.00 because they didn't try to start it. It's actually an indoor type but gasoline engine. I'd rather find a rusty junker sometime to use for that. A mast that someone was using for a 3 point went for 90.00 but I missed out. Another mast I was bidding on, the other idiot was the kind that just liked to win no matter what. It got to some crazy high price and I quit.
