Now you have me thinking about making a Artillian Front-Hoe Bucket.

Too many fun ideas.

Before I got my gc1710, I was really only looking for a tractor with a loader, and was thinking a stump bucket would be my first add-on.

It looks like it would be nice for tearing out roots. Maybe a little too large for that, though?

I will also have a single hook one few days - that could be better for roots.
As is, it cuts hard packed ground and clay very well. Digs out the hills. Cuts the center hump out of the road. Rips out bushes and small trees - 3” or less.
It does not like bedrock. But takes out other stones so far. Biggest so far is basket ball size. Beyond that and the PT struggles.

Even one next door to me. Using theirs convinced me to get one.

There was a guy that had a slope mower and attachments on Ebay, only about two months ago, that lives not far from you. I remembered someone telling me that there was a church around State College that had a very old diesel PT at one time. If your down my way, let me know. You can check the 1430 if ya want.

I think that is what I tried out next door.
Thanks
