Stump bucket build

[M59]

Yup.
does that thing have multiple teeth on it? Trying to figure out what's made onto the side there..

Vigo327,

A different pic for your viewing pleasure. I modified the M59 to accept attachments that fit the Kubota mini excavator (including KX121, KX040,KX71,KX91,KX033, U35 ) so I could buy and use all the many different quick attach attachments ( buckets, ripper, rakes, SSQA plate, Post Hole Auger... ) designed for the very common Kubota mini ex machines. Costs for the mini ex tools are much lower than M59 specific tools because the quantity of mini ex's in use vs the small number of M59s. Kubota's quick attatch coupler, specific for the M59, is unique and does not couple to the mini ex tools. The ripper tooth has single 1 inch thick blade of AR 400 steel with replaceable tooth.

Nice!!

My miniature-scale way of relating is that i rebuilt the dipper arm on my friend’s tiny b670 backhoe (5.5ft dig? lol) to be able to use the same attachments as my later model which also shares dimensions with the BX line.. so now both our machines can share attachments and potentially buy BX attachments. Still no quick coupler but its being considered.

I just use a Worksaver stump grinder. Leaves no holes to fill in and all that remains is chips that rot away.
