You are joking of course. Used drill bits around here are discarded or sold for scrap.

Cabs look great this time of the year, don't they?

Nope there's a guy here that pays big money then rebuilds them and sells them at new price . There really worth that much . I would take all I could get for scrap price so I could sell to him . The last I seen his price list he was paying $100-$12,000 for wore or used heads . And I know them are on his high side .

Hi Gordon,

Nicely done!

I notice you made it with a swinging rear gate, how does that work?

Thanks,
Thomas

I hope you get lots of stuff posted here. This is where all kinds of ideas come from.
This is my LPGS built in the spring of 2010.

I saw some of various lengths on ebay for what looked pretty reasonable to me, depending on what length you needed.

Bought flat cuttig edges for a 5' back blade from tractor dealer ( now out of Biz ). They are 3/4" below skids.

Could you post more detail pictures please?

Do you use it going forward like debrise forks or in reverse like a rake?

Thanks,
Thomas

I made this for cleaning up tree branches after felling a tree. The tines can float to follow terrain or be arrested. I cut off part of my finger when pulling this thing off in the dark and finding it had a nasty pinch hazzard on account of that floating design.

I've built several, some good, some not so good.

Hi Richard,

I almost forgot how jealous and hateful I feel toward you...



Nicely done, all of them.

Hey GW,

Nicely done, that is one massive boom!

What are you planning to lift with it?

The rest are similarly massive too.

OK, you asked for it:

this is a winch I converted from the type you had to bolt to the rear of the tractor to quick connection category HMV which we use in Norway
