Been doing some tree line removal, landscaping, etc. Had lots of fill that I stock piled. Needed someway to screen the bigger roots, stones, etc from the dirt. My skid steer loader "snow bucket" had a bottom that was pretty well shot. Cut the bottom out, welded in bars to create my "rock bucket". I used what I had available in my metal racks: 1" round; 3/4", 5/8" & 1/2" rebar; and 1/2' square for rear supports of the bars. 1st pic is of the bucket laying on it's back while I weld the 1/2" square supports, 2nd pic is hanging ready to go out the door, 3 pic is O/H Mig fillet weld on the 1/2" square, 4th pic is dirt sifted. Still a little wet to be doing this as can be seen by the dirt balls around the bottom of the pile. I figure I'll put a 1/8" plate over top of the bars and secure with a couple of bolts for snow removal. I have a new digging bucket, too agressive for snow.

Reply:Looks good.. And I think rebar would add a nice look to the steaks.Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom. |
