[QUOTE="nailsbeats, post: 9236, member: 784"] Well I got pumped up and decided to build a 15” backhoe bucket. I already have a 20”, but wanted something a little smaller for a trenching job on Friday. One thing I tried for the first time was making what I believe is referred to as a “Rezloh” cutting edge. I had a small piece of 1”x8” cutting edge laying around from my tree shear so I took the band saw and plasma cutter to it. I think it looks neat, and clean without bolt on teeth. I will soon find out if it will hold up. The key to designing a backhoe bucket is the taper. The whole bucket must taper from front to back. Most of you know that this is essential for clean out. Here on some pics of it all tacked up.

It took maybe 6 hours to get to this stage. I mounted it and it fits my Bobcat Exchange system perfectly, so now I will weld and paint. [/QUOTE]
