[QUOTE="1ofU, post: 80909, member: 7410"] Here is a bucket that i picked up last year for 200.00 it would of been a good scrap bucket to have it's a 60 inch bucket so i needed a grapple for the firewood as i cut it up in logs in the timber and bring it home and cut and spilt so i built it to use the forks i have for my backhoe they work good on it so i figured they would work for the grapple bucket aswell keeping the weight to what the bobcat can lift in it's range , so the forks worked out well and the grapple i did have to purchase a cylinder as the one's i had was all to large i used a 3.5X8 which is still kinda large as it has 24000.00 lbs of force but i would wrather have more then less on any cylinder . here some pics of the finished grapple bucket .
