Also I put a Bobcat thumb on the 331E stick. If you look close you can see it in the picture. I had to relieve some metal and weld a gusset on for the cylinder. I had it installed in about 3 hours. I pined the extend-a-boom closed. With the 331E you cannot use both the thumb and the extend...

I got her home last week and dug this stump the next day for a customer. I had to cut it in 3rds to get it loaded. My 863 would have picked it up with out a second thought. But I would have made a much bigger hole & mess with the...
Well I got it home today. Installed a thumb on it even though they told me it would not work. I had to weld a gusset for the cylinder and take some material of the stick so it would fit.
It runs great but here is my problem.... It won't pick up a 1,000lbs at the blade and the specs say it is...
Sucks we can't edit our posts here. I think I may be selling the Poor mans Hoe being I'm getting an excavator. Possibly Monday I will be getting a 2004 331E. If you know any thing about them please post in my other thread.
I'll be posting some more of the attachments I have built when I get...

This looks like a nice machine. But have you thought about what will happen if you run into say a steel fence post, barbwire, re-bar , tires and the like. I don't think it will take it well. And these are things I have ran into hidden in brush...
Find a Brush Wolf dealer and order the the Motor, coupler, Gearbox, & blade assembly through them. I did a lot of research before I bought the components. Basically you get what you pay for and they already have a good system. I just did not like their deck & saved a few bucks building my own. I...
I just picked up a used concrete breaker from an auction for $350. I tried it out on a big rock out in front of my house. It hammers consistently but did not seem like the blows were hard enough. I've never used one of these before. Can someone describe to me what I should expect?
This thing kicks butt. I can mow about 1/3 acre hr of berry bushes.
