Boom float

[rScotty]

The boom has float, not the dipper stick.

That wouldn't work as well. Maybe it also explains what's happening in that video - and why the float is an uncommon option.

I can see it working OK like float on the FEL it has it's place. But I can dig up sod, or smooth out an area with the BH by feathering the boom, bucket and stick.

You don't know what your missing until you don't have it I suppose.
