Have you done a search?

Here are the teeth and shanks that I made:

I remember making my 13" bkt for my CADDigger homebuilt hoe and the
carcass was 1/4" plate. Tough to bend in the arc I needed. Now I know
that it would have been easier and better to make the carcass of 1/8 or
3/16" steel and add wear strips to the edges and middle. Amazing what
you can bend with the right heat and persuasion.....

I run Esco teeth on my excavator. The shanks and teeth aren't the cheapest, but they last and I've never lost an esco tooth in 6 yerars of commercial digging.

The local Bobcat dealer stocks them around here.

Here's a link, I run the Super V style. They have different that you can run for everything from frost to loamy soil. They're easy to change-out the teeth. http://www.escocorp.com/markets/highway_construction/tooth_system4.html

I just bought this tooth at a JD dealer. It goes on a 35-degree shank that
is 1.5" wide. I plan to use it on a single tooth ripper attachment for my
backhoe. This is my preferred "bluetooth".

There is a guy from California on e-scam that sells both the shanks and forged teeth pretty cheap. I got the ones like dfkrug's.
