I have been planning on building a QA bucket and a fancy set of forks for several years now, but I have just not ever gotten around to it. I finally got to the point recently where I needed some forks and I could not wait any longer to do something elaborate so I came up with a somewhat unique set of QA forks. The are somewhat limited because they are farther our from the tilt fulcrum than I would like, but for what I need they work very well and it did not take long at all to make them. I bought these hollow forks off someone on eBay for $50, but you could make them out of almost anything laying around. If I bought a new tractor tomorrow, putting a hitch receiver on the bucket would be my first project (I use it that much)
BTW - I drilled out the pin hole in the receiver so I could use a 3 point pin and round clip instead of those little spring clips .... I hate those things!
