I am working on the grapple now. I just need to buy a cylinder to finish. I should have it by this week end.

I wanted to add these picks to show the importance of how far to tilt the adaptor plate forward. The oil tanks skin is 16 gauge or about .060 in thick. 1 ½ “ box tubing, all the rest was built of ¼” plate. Except the cutter bar it being a sharpened off ½ or 5/8” bar
Weld only around the edges or closes to all edges; Reframe from putting any tacks in the middle. They can cause grief buy busting loose. Let it float inside what little it will, Tie all the braces together.

this shows full tilt foward.

This shows full tilt back. If the plate were not mounted with a foward tilt i don't believe the bucket would carry right.

This looks terrific. I have spent so much time moving mulch that I can see this being incredibly useful. Great job! However, I think that roasting a boar would be a terrific use as well! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I was at a church where my daughter was married and they had a barbecue made out of a tank identical to the one I made the bucket out of. I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea at that LOL. Next time i'm over there i get some pics of it.

Nice job!!...I can see I need to learn to weld! Do you know what the weight of the bucket is and how many cubic feet?

 

[stray]

The weight of the big red can is 224 pounnds. I have really tryed it out now and it is tough. I have loaded large cuts of wood in it and even dug dirt. I would even say that it is the most used attachment i have now and i have about 16 of them. Don't know how i would do without in?
