Varmint,

Got any pics of that? For that price I may try making one again.

I think the price very reasonable considering all the little detail that you dont have to worry about. Not to mention getting the teeth and shanks from somewhere. I know all this could be make from scratch, but its take time and equipment. For most of us the 200-300 bucks doesn't seem that bad. Then again we do live in an "instant" society.

Not sure how to link, but there are photos of my toothbar project in the "attachments" forum, and you can find them by searching for "varmint". http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/31811-bucket-toothbar.html is one link, the other is clost by. I'm not at my home computer, or I'd just re-attach the photos. I got the teeth at a TSC store, maybe $5-6 each (two teeth on each forging). WHIW, I used to live in the Bloomington, IN area- still think it's a nice place.

I have my teeth welded on permanently because most of my work with the FEL is digging. Once in a while I wish I had my blade alone with out teeth but not often enough to have the teeth removed.

Gee...when did this become the "Buy It Yourself Forum"?
After I get done putting hydraulics on my '67 Wheel Horse,I'll start on the toothbar.
