Diy compact tractor

[farm boy00]

Hi, sorry no updates for over a year! Been distracted by life!
I have started to this project again and I am currently planning the hydraulic system and backhoe.
No longer need this for grass cutting as I now have a ride on mower.
Backhoe will be light but useful. I do not want a heavy oversized backhoe that will pull this little tractor all over the place.
Pictures to come

Do you have plans for a loader too?

Do you have a loader planned for counter weight

No plans, a few weights will suffice, the backhoe won't be that heavy.

Cool. Can't wait to see it. Didn't you build another with loader anyways

this is great. i am wanting to build one like this. and have been looking around for parts and a using a welder. i think i can make a pole style snapper rear end set up work for a small one. but want to build a trans and rear end type to for working in the garden. and pullling other things in the yard. i am really enjoying this keep going bro.
