Multipurpose 3 point hitch attachment hauling gravel. - YouTube

I picked up my brand new CK2010 last week. Got the standard transmission and extra hydraulic circuit. So far I have put on 8.2 hours Made 3 mods: Throttle pedal Spill guard & hooks on the bucket "Disposable" canopy Photos are attached. I am very happy with my purchase and with the dealer...

Here is an idea I would like to share. I made the mixing bin today, haven't tried it out yet, but it seems so simple that it HAS to work! Anyway, have a look at Concrete Mixing Bin/Tub for Mini Excavator - YouTube Theoretically this bin should accommodate a batch using at least 1 full bag of...

I have a lot of trouble now cutting straight with a plasma or oxy cutter. So I made this simple cheap rig to help me out. Some of you might want to make one also, so I am posting here. YouTube

For everyone who just loves watching a Kioti at work - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8L1jw10FQFI

Yes, a dump trailer works great as long as you have a place to turn around. Here is a photo of the JD 2150 with a dump trailer, taken just across the creek earlier this spring on the same job. The grizzly is hinged, sort of. It hangs by 2 short chains. I plan to make a better hinge system but...

So here is a simple idea that a few of you may be able to use. It worked well for me over a 2 week period and got the job completed. The star of this video is the excavator but my Kioti DK45 SE and a JD 2150 are co-stars. The basic principle is the same no matter which machines are used so I...

Made from an old steel post (2 pieces of 3"x4" square tube welded together to make 3" x 8"). Can be used with a tractor (behind or in front), excavator, or? Needs loose material to function effectively so I use the box blade/ripper teeth first if the ground is packed. Works either way up, both...

Your wish is my command... I also welded on a piece of railroad track across the back for more ballast.

This is a slight modification of a home built excavator log splitter so that it can be used for splitting roofing shakes. I have it attached to my mini excavator here, but there is no reason not to use a 3 point woodsplitter the same way, or attach to a tractor hydraulic system, or attach it to...

Things that make it hard to get up in the morning: -Knowing that all 8 Jerry cans full of fuel are at the FRONT of the pickup box and INSIDE the canopy. Ahead of a full pallet of sacked cement with grease guns, chainsaws, and several shovels & rakes on each side. And a fully-loaded trailer that...

Just another carryall, maybe a few new ideas for anyone thinking of building one. Tractor is a Kioti DK45SE Tractor Carryall - YouTube EDIT - Since the video I added side panels (Photos below). These are made from 3/8" rebar spaced wide enough to slide fence posts etc through, yet close...

Some shots of a tool holder I welded up. Previously I had one made from plastic pipe much like some others have made. My mistake was using thin-wall pipe. After a year of use and a couple repairs it became clear that thin plastic pipe would not stand up. So I made a metal tool holder. Height -...
