Thumb for forks.

[Engineer42]

Ok, I need some help. I知 looking to build a thumb for my 48 forks. Just something simple, with one arm and one cylinder. I would use it took pick up cut limbs and other tree debris. I swore I remembered seeing a recent post regarding someone building one but I can稚 find it. Any help would be appreciated.

Disregard last. A more diligent search found what I was looking for.

Are you looking for something like this? It's really useful here with the people that deal with logs daily.

I have been thinking of buying the thumb from green machine. I have a 2" receiver mounted on both my bucket and forks, I've been thinking of making a bracket to fit the recievers . Do you guys think this will work.
