Thumb for mini hoe

[bbabineau]

Attached are pictures of a thumb that I had made for my hoe. I did not want one welded to the hoe so I designed one that bolts on and folds back out of the way without removing. So far tests have been successful but I may want to later make a longer thumb but that should be easy since it is simply a two inch tube with notches cut. It is pinned on so is easy to remove.

great implementation. I like the way it folds up when you are not using it.

Is this something that others can buy? Any details you can share? Thanks

If there is enough interest and if my testing comes up with satisfactory performance, I will ask the fabricator who made it if he is interested in making more and what the price would be.

I would like one if the price is reasonable.

GREAT LOOKING THUMB. LIKE THE IDEA OF BEING ABLE TO MOVE OR REMOVE IT IF NEED BE.

How's the testing coming? I have an upcoming project where a thumb would be very helpful-- is the fabricator interested in making more?

Me too.

Add me to list. I was going to weld one up, but I really like that this one folds and is removeable. I would buy one also if the price was fair.
