Skid steer project

[BGL990]

I'll second that!

We need lots of details and closeup pictures from all angles. And videos of it in action.
And CAD plans.
And ...

Well, OK, whatever you have time to post would be appreciated!

Will try to get more pictures. It's a pain because the size limitation of the board I have to reduce the picture drastically.

Was out digging ( at someone elses house since my better half will not let me dig up her yard ). I wanted to try out the braking system on a step hill. Put in Deadman brake so when you let go, it stops the vehicle. Also make it unnecessary to have a parking brake.

no problem climbing a 30 degree hill with a full bucket of dirt. The bucket is about 18 x 22 deep x 36 inches wide.
Dugged a driveway out in about 2 hours that's about 10 feet by 30 feet. Need to modify the bucket a little bit by making the upstoke floating to getting better levelling and control. The skid is small and light weight, and with such a short wheel base (30 inches), it's hard to grade the ground properly.

Will try to post more details. Right now, heading back to the shop to do some welding.
