Took me a while, but I finally got a video of the craftsman digging in my back yard for a shed addition so I can store my next project. A 1947 Cletrac model bd.

Nice job!!! Question tho, I am planning on building one but a lot of people say not to use just one cylinder to the bucket to avoid twisting, have you had any problems with that setup?
Great Job!

Thanks for the positive comment.

No, I have not had any problems with it twisting, however, it does lack curling power. I am planning on adding the other cylinder as soon as my finances allow.

BTW, everyone told me that a Craftsman would never dig, but I used a Craftsman anyway because that's what I had and as you can see, it works just fine.
