I built a grapple for my <font color="orange"> Kubota </font> B2910. Check this link for pictures.

There a couple of grapple projects from the PT group. Click Here
And Click Here. MossRoad has not posted lately on the progress of his Grapple. I like the curved forks he has made. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif May update mine to that type of forks.
I pickup a used bucket that needs some repair from my dealer last week. This will allow me to keep the grapple on that bucket all the time. With the Quick coupler that I have it’s very easy to change buckets. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yeah, I let that one slip by over the winter... too cold in the shed. As time permits this spring, I will finish it. I've found some good cylinder candidates at the Surplus Center. Just need to find some time to do it /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif.

The curved fingers are from a 4' diameter, 4" wide x +1/2" thick steel ring I found in a local scrap(treasure) yard. Found two of them and some 1/4" wall 2" steel tubing for $20.00.
