Mini Hoe Teeth

[KentT]

KentT -

It is a much thicker wall tube; my bent and cracked about 1-1/2 years ago, and I spent a lot of time and money having it welded, then ordered a new one when it got really bad.

The new one has been fine since then with much heavier work!

The downside is the price and high shipping cost to repair what I think is an inherent design flaw.

All told, with the new parts and welding, and the other repairs, I spent over $600 in a couple months.

Thanks, Mark, for those encouraging words about the heavier duty replacement part!

I know that I'm consistently "pressing the design limits" on mine -- it's a weird combination of a lot of TLC combined with outright abuse!

I knocked off most of them on my 1430 mini-hoe. Found they are just snips from bucket edge stock. Also happens to be the same material as the blades on my brushcutter, so I just used 1" pieces off of a broken blade. Broke the blade when I hit an boulder. If you do not have the parts for making teeth, I bet they cannot be expensive from PT. Have not damaged any of the ones I welded on yet, but then I have not been quite as aggressive with my rock punching!
