I am in the design/planning stage of this so it could be awhile before I start so lets call this a desktop build. I want a sit in unit,and I have looked at the name brand units online like the bobcat S70 and the case 1816 and want around that size unit. For starters,what would you guys say the minimum weight I could get away with and it still be usable ? It's a micro so I dont have big plans for it...I recently bought a little condemned house that we have have rebuilt located on about a quarter acre of land.I also own a half acre lot with large shop across the street,and between the two properties I have more than enough work to keep a little unit like this bizzy but cannot justify purchasing such a unit. I build hotrods on the side so I would use this to drag projects in/out of my shop,on/off the trailer,move dirt around,push debris into piles to burn,or haul off.I could also see clearing snow of my property,building a driveway with it as well.My wife is on board with the plan because she wants to use it for yard/garden work hauling mulch and other stuff around.I am a fabricator,welder,and mechanic so I have the skill,and ability to build this no biggie !
