What else do you do with forks besides lift pallets?

Build a rock wall.

That's a serious wall! Nice job!

Saw a new use and sorry, no photo. A relative was telling me he used his forks to lift giant snowballs in place to make the mother of all snowmen for his grandchildren.

Was he using it for a platform as well to get the kids up to the face and to place that old black hat?

That's actually a good idea but my guess is mom would veto. He has an extend-a-hoe as well so I'll bet that might figure in.

I'm the OP and recently lifted my first pallet with the pallet forks. I've lifted everything else but until now, no pallets.
They are great for big rocks and awkward tillage implements.

I too took away my 35" Hitachi Tube TV on the forks. Seems they make better heavy equipment than TVs.

That's a great Kubota wheel loader. I could use one with forks and a bucket as well.

An awesome machine, reliable as all heck, albeit with a few drawbacks.

Fork carrier scavenged from wrecked fork lift and has hydraulically adjustable forks. And that is NICE to have! I was at a friends the other day manually adjusting some six foot forks, and I thought, man I don't miss that.
