[QUOTE="73Eldo, post: 15949, member: 1735"] I finally had time to finish building it. I ended up just making hooks on the front and using turnbuckles on the back to hold it to the bucket. Used it for about 1/2 hour on various places in the yard and it seemed to work well. Took it off to check it out and found that several of my welds had broken. Found some different angles to get in there and get some more weld area for the mid ones that I suspect just broke because the back ones broke. Also welded in some gusset plates in the areas that I think are the more critical spots. I think I had a total of $15 invested because most of the material was from some scaffold braces that came with a $36 scaffold set. Will try and remember my camera next time. Do planes in general seem to work better in reverse? Or is it just me, my machine, or my home made plane that makes it seem that way? [/QUOTE]
