Tractor backhoe - homemade

[Oldpath05]

Definitely will be the first one on a tractor for sure. They don't even make it for backhoes either. Mostly excavators.

Check out Mecalac and Wacker Neuson exacavators. Both have tiple boom setups on a much smaller scale that what Renze shown.

Yup I went up and down google and youtube, nothing like it on tractors. So this might be worth the wait for completion, hope BFreaky can stay calm under pressure the whole world is watching............

:thumbsup:There I finally see a triple boom in action, couldn't find a Wacker Neuson, but did find Mecalac, I notice it had a bucket attachment like BFreaky's FEL with stiffener in middle. According to the accent might be made down under can you buy me one for Christmas...........

I'll try but this might have a nail biter ending, he now has me hooked on to this historic episode............

Those are big machine seem to work good in tight quarters where travel is limited. When BFreaky does get his built it might be the only one on a tractor in the world, I cant find one on a tractor anywhere...........

Its also, a long boom looses crowd force when digging nearby, because the stick cylinder is pushing at an angle. When you move that joint back by folding the first two boom parts you get the digging force of a short boom, with the reach of a long one.

The telescopic stick extension you usually see in backhoes, reduce crowd force because the lever gets longer

 

[BFreaky]

That's why I avoided telescope from day one. And also because it ads extra weight at the end of the boom so you loose part of lifting force

45mm steel.............:confused2: Glad I have this site in my saved section now I can understand you across the pond folks.... Convert mm, cm to fraction or decimal inches (in = mm = cm)
What you didn't think I'd look up the tools your using, I always do just to know whos doing what with what and how, its a form OCD........

Impressive 45mm=1-3/4 and its cheaper then the Hyper by more then half so theres still some left over for a new fridge so to avoid a frypan over the head.......

My son bought a Eastwood, figure since he makes some good movies the plasma might be good, well IMO it's ok-ish............

I forgot to post the video of Mecalac I found of a triple boom, works really slick with quite the reach and the ability to come in close, now if this build comes out this good I'll be impressed at the point of amazed...... Mecalac Skid excavator Vs Standard Excavator - YouTube

Mecalac is a great example of thinking out of the box. They make machines with excelent properties.

Moving on. Finished booms 1 & 2, some cleanup and since it was on a crane I figured I'll wash it and put the primer on...it can hang and dry till Monday
