Fun with implements

[brain55]

A customer of mine sent me this pic last week telling me he wanted to be able to push it with his Bobcat skid-steer.




I had no idea at first how I was going to accomplish it. This is what I came up with, though my first thought was to weld it to the bucket.

Here are more pics.

And another, my phone app keeps crashing.




I think it turned out pretty well, the customer was very happy.

Nice welds. Attachment looks like something from a horror movie...

It is a little Frankensteinish, apparently he found it on EBay, and thank you.

I bet he will soon want a tongue jack on the roller, too. It looks heavy

Yeah, we already talked about that, probably when I'm out there in the next couple of weeks doing some other work.

That looks like an awful big load for the skidsteer as the weight has a lot of inertia. How does it handle it?
