Has anyone considered welding a 2" receiver on the back of the bucket? I was thinking it would be nice to slide a ball hitch in and move a trailer or something occasionally. Also would be a good way to attach accessories?It turns out that the trimmer shaft will fit inside 1 1/4 square tube. It would be easy to drill a flat piece of stock to correspond to the collar that holds the attachment shaft on the power head shaft and then weld it in place on the square tube to hold the trimmer and attachment in place. Then weld or bolt the square tube to the bucket. The attachment would stick out about 30" from the side. Don't know if that would cause clearance issues with the house on the minix? Also, not sure if I'd mount it to stick out frontwards from the boom or sideways?

edit: after more thought I think it would be in the way when digging.
