Airbiscuit, you leave me faced with quite a conundrum...what should I choose, your fork attachment or the attractive field hand lol! I guess my wife would make that choice for me.

Man-O-Man I bet she's built like a half-back. Wouldn't want to mess with her.

I've clamped on 4 forks on the bucket o my M4700 (6 feet wide) and then after piling up the brush fastened a chain on a tossed it over. But I found for my use one pair of forks did well.

I just use my pallet forks, 38 inches wide and 42 inches long. I find that an 8 foot wide bush pile about 3 foot high is about all I want for passing through gates and around trees. My wife and I pick up sticks and branches and hand pile them on the forks. We make large piles sitting on a couple of logs. We pick up or roll larger pieces on to the forks. We also move the large piles to the fire site. I do loose a few pieces moving but not many. I keep thinking of adding a grapple to the forks to help keep the pile on.

I got this used JD bale grapple designed to go on a bucket and mounted it on a fork carrier, mostly for handling hand bombed branches.
It has proved itself, many times, not loosing a stick on the way to the brush pile and being able to repeatedly compact the load.
As for the girl. Does she do snow? I watched that, almost not believing what I was seeing. That level of effort applied to a very manual task here on planet earth, circa 2020!

I've seen this video with the chick a while ago actually. They're part of some back to nature community, they also have vids of of them cutting grass with a scythe.

Did that!
With fork extensions I could pile so many branches that I needed a guide to direct me.
