These are of my ripper. The wheels I decided to use are crap. They must be able to pivit. I tried the quick and easy approach and now I've paid for it. Oh well, you win some you lose some. It will be changed. It also has 2 spikes used for rock hunting and plucking.

Again I must send thanks to all who helped me with the uploading problems. My frustration was coming to an end. You all remind me of the first pioneers who came together to build a new settlement (being my problems) I must thank bladerunner and mjncad especially there advise was extremely useful. Today I will be using my tractor and attachments on site so I will snap a few action pics and have them uploaded soon.

Same here, garnet. Glad to hear it may have been helpful to you and hope it will save you enough time for a much needed few minutes of R&R :)

Here are some action pics of my power rake and my quickspade. The pics of my quickspade are not very good but that's what I needed it for. The next time I give it a good workout I'll be sure to snap some.

jimmyj you're more than welcome to steal any ideas I have, after all I "borrowed" them from other people on this site. I started using the forks, for putting my attachments on and off my trailer. But now I use them for lifting old motors for customers, planters, and believe it or not I tore up an ash fault driveway and garage ash fault floor with extreme ease. My son was able to do this. He's 16 (my youngest) and has only operated this machine a few times. I'm proudest of my power rake. It works slick! I crowned a packed gravel driveway about 400 ft long, in an hour. I haven't dug up any trees with my tree spade yet. Although it handles rocks like a dream. It's made out of 3/8 plate, and you just pry them out. The quickhitch is very handy. I never need to leave my seat unless I'm hooking up PTO and hydraulic couplers. I've started construction on a new tiller, I broke the gear box in my last one, no long weekends left though, too busy these days with paying work. Any specifics or information you require I'd be more than happy to oblige. If I think hard enough I can probably tell you who I got the ideas from originally.

Garnet, I am really impressed with your work. I marvel at the things folks on TBN create. I wish I had the talent. In Ag Mechanics I was the worst at welding. What does it take to create all this at home (equipment, tools)? Is it cheaper making the implement than purchasing the implement? I'm sure the pleasure of creating them would outweigh any cost is if did cost more. Again, nice job. I really like the spade.

Very nice work!

How long did it take you to build all of these ?

You did a great job on everything.

Thanks for sharing your work.
