Market for PT custom Attachment???

[BrianP]

Hi all. Has any of you handy custom PT attachments makers ever thought of sellling them??? The reason I ask is Im not handy with welders /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif . I know I would Buy some of your guys custom Pieces if they where offered. Like Eds plate for the full size backhoe or a PT reese hitch that bolts on.
I bet a lot of guys would buy them.
Any way feed back from you guys would be great. thanks again Brian /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

there is a movement under way to do just that. several members here on pt are discussing this issue with an attachment manufacturer and wholesale distributor of machinery implements. the way we think it would work is you would submit the concept or request for quote to a forum on the internet, either by private e-mail or by posting it so everyone could chime in.

we have already posted one such attempt for (pt 400 series) after market female quick attach plates which could bet bought some $30.00 less. Keep in mind, this is not to go in competition with pt, but some of us have had the need to have attachments made for our specific task at hand.

this is for my friend PaulJ, the most prolific pter in the USA. i told you i would let the cat out of the bag, when things are getting somewhat out of the concept stage. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Hey Brian - sorry I sold the backhoe and the custom attachment plate that I made to go on it. A local guy with a small bobcat bought it and he is going to weld a standard skid steer plate to it.

I like that idea Hans, with all the many needs out there we should be able to offer many ideas.
I have a few of my own to present.

I like the idea also Hans, as I will be trying to customize a 1845 for mountain tree, brush and slash removal for wildfire mitigation here in Colorado.

I have learned a lot already from you longtimers and still have a long ways to go. I will be happy to share what I learn and figure out the hard way as well.

The Ag and CUT industries (AND their customers) have all benifitted from the wide variety of third-party impliments and accessories that are available and it is high time for this to spread to PT users as well.

Hi Guys & Ladies
We finally are getting started but since this mulching attachment has universal application, we felt it should be posted under TBN attachments.
Our first attempt
We are looking forward to your as always great imputs /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

See what some other people are interested in in this forum and we included even some inputs from lawn and landscaping forums. No one seems to like braking their back shoveling mulch. Well her it is:

Ok you guys don't want to contribute! /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif well i got this famous engineer to make the ULTIMATE solution for my mulching problem. The design cost was reasonable and it took him only three days to come up with this ingenious way to solve my back problem of having to shovel the mulch.

Future PT owners you may not need to go through the expenses of buying a $7000.00 machine this will do. All parts can be found in your local hardware store or wholesale engine online distributer. - NO Further Input is needed. /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif] :g
