Anyone know of a manufacturer who makes root rakes for a backhoe? I have a Woods BH-90X on my NH 2310, and want to be able to better handle brush as well as pull stumps, etc. The 18 inch bucket doesn't work well for brush. The thumb and bucket meet nearly parallel, so stuff just slips out the bottom.
I've been thinking something like a 4 tine rake, where the center two are just to the outside of the thumb, and then two outlying ones. Make the tines curved inward enough on the rake that I can "capture" brush, etc, with it with ease... Burning season is here in MA, and I have lots of brush I need to burn from my field opening project. .
My other thought is to contact a custom fab shop, and inquire with them on how much to build one from scratch.
