Been moving a lot of stuff around recently and started thinking it would be good to have an attachment for lifting things....

I am using a 3.5 ton machine and won't be lifting a ton of weight so I came up with this. I mostly am putting attachments in trailers, lifting rocks with a set of tongs, setting some 600lbs concrete pads in place, etc. I also made a 4' extension pole (1/4" wall 2" tube) so I can lift light stuff higher or further out - like a truss, etc...

Just thought ti may interest some people....

That's one way to fit it into a flat rate box!

How did you cut the profiles?

LOL!!

Sort of lucked out and found them precut dirt cheap on Ebay a while back (due to a weird bucket curve) test fitted them and everything was right on so I cut them straight for this application.

Looks good. This should be a popular attachment and surprised no one really makes one.

Need some action pick​s.

When the darn rain stops I will go out and do some testing and add some photos. Figure I will max it out to text my welds and such in the safest manor.
