I'm gonna try to build one if I can find an old shovel plow to use as the spade.
I'll weld some channel on one side to fit my forks. It's on my to do list along with a million other things.

M.D.

I hesitate to promote any business but if it is permissible
check out Northern they have a "spade" attachment for FEL

That is what I'm interested in. I wish I could get a better look at it. I think I could build one a lot cheeper than $177.00 with shiping. I don't think there is that much to it. I have the fork lift attachment that I built.
