Great. Back then I took a 2.50 m railroad track and made a slot in the middle for the gripper teeth. I could also use this for my big old excavator. I just had to use wire ropes on the left and right. I used it to smooth out large building plots and create paths. This version here is of course much more elegant.😁
Thank you👍 I plan to make one someday. I tried just dragging a pallet behind me, and it works. Also tried to attach pallet with some extra weight to excavator👍
Very interesting idea. It is somewhat limited to machines with tilt bucket options, which is not as common as a thumb. Without the tilt option you have to keep adjusting grading blade to get the machine to correct pitch, then, once you swing the house to another position, you are out of level once again. I can grab just about any piece of wood or steel with my thumb and achieve similar results, but I have to keep adjusting the angle to match the grade I need. When I'm done though, or need to add material, or excavate more aggressively, I can just toss the wood/steel off to the side and keep digging with the bucket that is still mounted on the machine. You have to disconnect and go find where you left your bucket again, or use another machine to bring more fill in. Every tool has advantages and disadvantages. Great welding project!
You're right about that! I have not even thought about it. Here in Sweden, almost nobody is using thumbs. Almost everyone uses tilt or rotor tilt. However, I am very eager to mount a thumb on my machine. It seems to be a very good accessory.
Great idea, but you need to get the attachment level and then back up in reverse... this way the height of the attachment is always level vice trying to operate the attachment level. Hope this makes sense.
Hi, it is a magnetic sweeper. There are different brands if you search on google or amazon. The one im using is this one: www.sagro.se/sv/artiklar/magnetplockare-med-hjul.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIj_zvjd24_AIVskeRBR230AC-EAQYAiABEgIDbfD_BwE
I think you can have good use of it without tilthead too, but it requires that the machine is standing on a plane position. Easier with a tilt head for sure but It's still a nice equipment. :)
Hello! Unfortunately I sold this equipment, but the it was 150cm wide. That is the only dimension I really remember really. Maybe I've got a drawing of it somewhere, I will take a look.
Actually I have just used it once so for for a small project but it worked really well especially with the roller. I will make movies using it when the snow here is gone.
Diemention appropriate is crucial 1500mm fits my Mcr 8t 1350mm mcr6 should try something the width of the track frame or a little smaller , very versatile tool in the right hands
It is a common tilt quick hitch, I don't know the brand tho. The quick connector for the bucket is called s30, a common system here in sweden. S30 for small machines, s40, s50 and so on, depending on machine size.
I'm not sure, I sold it before I got to use it myself. But 150cm wide, and a good driver can level quite a big are I guess. Thanks to the roller you dont have to be that precice compared to those without rollers.
It behooves me why with a lathe at your use WHY WOULD YOU CUT THE SMALL BARS TO MAKE THE SUPPORT ON THE ROLLER when you have the lathe that you can cut the inside of the pipe and put the pin in it in one swift action. this would save the time and trouble of finding the size needed to make 4 extra pieces and could save making the cap's. By cutting the circle for each end you would have a more concentric circle for the roller and it would save time putting all of this together and .you would be welding the back of the pin and you could even double the piece for more strength. Other wise it all works.
Snyggt jobbat! Vad använder du för utrustning? Kanske kan lägga till det i beskrivningen. Den där sågen såg (haha) fin ut! Kul att du fått så många visningar och bry dig inte om Kerry eller vad han heter som gnäller på musiken, det gör han jämt, även på min kanal och jag har bett honom göra egna videos om mina inte duger. Ha det bra!
Haha intressant! Nej det är ju svårt att få alla nöjda på internet..:) Tack för bra tips! Jag ska skriva ner i beskrivningen vad för grejer det är jag använder. Sågen är kanonbra! Innan har jag kört vinkelkap men det låter så ofantligt, och dessutom blir det mycket snyggare med bandsågen :)
I always get a charge out of videos saying we’re making something DIY out of scrap, but then proceed to use thousands and thousands of dollars in tools to do it!!
Hi Kerry, hehe I actually agree with you, I normally prefer without music. But as this video is in time lapse and quite long, I thought it could be nice with some relaxing music in the background and thought that classic style piece did fit. But thanks for your comment, I might considering removing it if it is too annoying. Have a good day!
@@LoBeau53 I sure do but nobody likes watching silent videos! The tractors make their own sound that people like to hear without the music. And people also like to hear the operator talking about the equipment or the job. They don't need music covering him up either especially since the music has nothing to do with the video or the contents.

You have the same professional workbench that I do, down on the ground, except you actually get shit done on it 🤣

If we put in 3 way hitch point in compact tractor will work?!
That would surely work, good idea!
Would it be any use if I do not have a tilt head?
I think you can have good use of it without tilthead too, but it requires that the machine is standing on a plane position. Easier with a tilt head for sure but It's still a nice equipment. :)
I like this idea 😃... I don't have the skills to do it, but I like it 😄
Thanks Ansari! I am sure you can learn how to make one yourself. :)
hi! can you describe a little bit main dimensions (+/-)? i planning to do something similar. BR
Hello! Unfortunately I sold this equipment, but the it was 150cm wide. That is the only dimension I really remember really. Maybe I've got a drawing of it somewhere, I will take a look.
good job..(I
Thank you!
Does it do what you were hoping for?
Actually I have just used it once so for for a small project but it worked really well especially with the roller. I will make movies using it when the snow here is gone.
Good job bud🤙
Thanks!
Wow, Bach!

Hello! Can you tell me how many m2 per hour can be leveled?
I'm not sure, I sold it before I got to use it myself. But 150cm wide, and a good driver can level quite a big are I guess. Thanks to the roller you dont have to be that precice compared to those without rollers.
What is the cost of fitting a tilty to the digger
It depends on what kind of unit really, but I would say between €650-1000 for a regular tilt like the one mounted on my machine.
2m long rsj with attachment in middle gr8 leveling bar

Good job. What dimensions has? Lxl ?
Thanks! It is 142cm, so a pretty small (or handy) one 😊

I'll tell you where Minitilt is from
I always get a charge out of videos saying we’re making something DIY out of scrap, but then proceed to use thousands and thousands of dollars in tools to do it!!
That is really true. Sometimes it's even cheaper buying than spending all the money on tools etc. Depends of if you like building things hehe.

Some of us do not watch construction videos that play music.
