[QUOTE="Mr Jimi, post: 2761, member: 326"] I agree with ya, A grapple is a good idea. And My bucket will be 90 degrees to my backing plate? Why did you go with more angle on yours? and what does it look like after playing in the dirt after awhile, like bending etc.? My bottom will be 14 3/4 inches instead of 16 inches as planned, I want pictures! ( insert smiley face here ) And we have real soft sand here in Florida and very few rocks. Also, when my plates got sheared? they have a very slight arch to them, that I want to get rid of before welding with a jack/ porta-power/ ratcheting load binder etc. Lets keep the ideas pouring on this!! My next project is a serious long boom, I am thinking 26 feet from the backing plate with hopefully 200 pounds lift extended and lots more collapsed. Whats your ideas on this? It will be 3- 10 foot pieces and 2 feet inside after the first 10 equals 26 feet plus arms and lots of height? Jim [/QUOTE]
