Against having this much fun. Took the tooth bar out for a test spin and really got to work my tractor for the first time.
Now that was fun, worked on the road some and added to my brush pile, not very doable without the teeth. I've gotta get going on a grapple and hope my remotes come in soon.
Here's a shot of the tooth bar I built.
Oops, shoulda put this in Owning/Operating

I think you can change it, just delete it and copy it over to the correct one (one you want).

Nice looking bar.

Nice fabrication on the toothbar. A pictorial of the design process for the grapple would be of interest.

Keep the pictures coming! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

PS: Neat signature of Texas.

Thanks guys. Here's a shot of the brush forks I've got started, the grapple part will follow. I'd sure like to have a pattern flame cutter or CNC plasma cutter, a band saw and torch are pretty time consuming.

Once again, you rock Red! Nice toothbar. Looks as good as any I've seen. Nice to have talent, huh? John

Here's the finished product, I'll have to see how they hold up.

Those should be pretty strong since they're not WAY out in front of the bucket. Should be great for a good load of brush.
My dealer told me today that he has a plasma cutter. I didn't realize it. We're going to make one of those tree getters for the loader like ns_in_tex made. You might want to copy this as well. Sure looks like a handy tool to pull small trees with.

That's a pretty serious tool!! I may have to build a pantograph flame cutter, can't quite swing the ten grand or so for a CNC. It's a must for building stuff like this.
