BH90 kubota L4400, I have an 18" already, wanted a smaller bucket for more break out force, then they told me $650, then my wheels started turning

Nice job.:thumbsup:
I was curious though if the sides are parallel, or are tapered?

nice job, I'm thinking about making some sort of clay bucket this year. The prices on buckets are crazy.
