anyone who has tried to use your loader bucket to scoop up branches and brush knows its like trying to heard cats. you either put it low enough to get under them and start digging up the ground or it rides over them and you get nowhere. well a friend gave me a bunch of bushhog blades dicarded by the county. so i got the idea to make a rake. this is what i came up with. it works great, plus its strong enough to stop the tractor without bending. rake 005.JPGrake 004.JPG

I can see that lasting about 3 minutes with me. The main arms look weak where they were thinned down and would bend. But it works good for you so that's all that counts.

the arms are 3/8+ 3" has extra ear welded on were its pined, course some people like to drive wide open till the slam into a stump, and cant understand why something broke.
