Tractor backhoe - homemade

[BFreaky]

Hi. Here I am again with some innovations. This idea has been bugging me for some time now...so I finally decided to do it... I'm building my own tractor backhoe attachment for my Belarus 820 tractor. As always it al started with some drawnings... I made approx 30 of them, but here are a few final..

After that I made a detail inspection of the rear end of my tractor in order to come up with the best mounting solution. My decision was to make a hook type quick coupling with a frame under the tractor wich will connect to the front loader frame in order to avoid any stress or damage to the gearbox or engine.

Drawing 3D model...and the start of the real work..

The connection with the front loader frame...

The new mounting frame avoids all parts of the rear 3-point hitch, so the tractor can be normally used for agricultural or other jobs when the backhoe is off...

Mounting of the finished subframe...

I purchased some other parts...bucket teeth, joysticks, tandem gear pumps...

That's it so far. Right now I'm in the process of development of other parts for my backhoe...

I will be posting along the way untill it's finished...

So far that's about the nicest work I've seen on something like this. Looking forward to seeing your progress!

I'm curious where you're sourcing your purchased parts. Do you have someone local that's doing the CNC part cutting?

Very nice work!

Thanks. Yes, I draw my parts alone and then buy material and go to a local workshop where they cut it with a CNC plasma cutter

You're an incredible artist. Your sketches remind me of those of Leonardo da Vinci.

Thanks, but i think it can not be compared, he was a genius and this is only a 5 minute sketch...
