Post Trenching Trench Cleanout - MicroHoe

[J_J]

You could probably go all the way to a V shape, say 3 in angle. Just a thought.

Being lazy, I wonder if I could just bow out the sides. I could cut a groove in each side plate and then heat it with a torch and bend it out, then weld the grooves. I hate to remake the whole thing.
Or, I could just cut off most of the side, and it might still work to clean out ditches.
I need to test it on ditches first, before I go to major changes, but I suspect it will do the same as now.

Attached is my vesion of a trenching bucket that could also be used to clean one dug with the minihoe.

Here's another view

Wow! Nice job on a handy tool...

There'd be a market for those, since PT doesn't seem interested in building "grubbing buckets"... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

You are very good at fabricating and welding.
Keep those projects coming.

Thanks but I can't take all the credit. I designed it, cut the materials but had a local fab shop weld it up for me. They charged me $150 to supply the tube and weld up all the pieces and they even painted it.

Nice job, I was getting ready to ask if you folded any of the pieces and welded the rest, but you said some one had welded the unit for you. You still get the credit for the design. Is it the same width as the mini-hoe?
