Root/rock Bucket

[DDT]

I built a rock bucket, There is 3" between the pipes. I used 1 1/4" OD, 1/4" wall pipe, The loader bit is 3/4 x 4". There was a lot of welding on this project. I used my ESAB 250 AMP wire welder. I have several pic's to show off a little.

Now for the test, here is a pile of dirt and rock and concrete. I needed to save the dirt and haul off the crap.

Just got a good start. It was supriseing how well it let the dirt fall though.

In the pile and lift, the dirt was very mellow so it fell right though
