what tine spacing would you use when making a dual purpose muck, debris and brush grab ?
I have five 60x40mm (roughly 2.5x 1 5/8 inch) high strength steel bars, which used to be an unfinished grass fork (i ground them out of my loader bucket when i bought it: the guy wanted to make a silage fork of it but bought a payloader before he finished it, so sold the bucket with forks)
Since i have 5 forks, a 3.60 meter muck spreader, i was thinking a 1.70 meter fork was ideal. The tractor would only be two inch wider than the fork, and two forks of muck would fill the length of the spreader. That would leave me with a 42.5cm center distance. (about 16 1/2 inch)
Is that desirable for a branch claw, and a muck claw ? When the spacing is too big, muck will fall through, and when spaced too close, branches will weave up between the tines.. Whats the best for both ?
