Saw this on youtube. I have just done some changes to my HF welder from years ago. Tried my hand at building these. I used some 1/8 inch thick angle iron, I think it was 1 inch wide. Anyway I welded a stop, from a piece that I cut off , to the long piece. Attached a chain to the stop and to the end under the bucket.
Seems to work well. I moved a bit of brush and life a portable chipper shreader and a small pile of landscape timbers.
For light duty and cheap, it will work out fine. I definitely need to work on welding skills but it's a start.

Nice and simple.

Looks nice. You'll probably find if you put a spreader bar across it will keep them from twisting when running into a brush pile.
But that may be mission creep :)

Thought about a bar across them. I think that would be a good idea.
