[QUOTE="Farmallh51, post: 77648, member: 9466"] Looks Great! I too was wondering what the cost to build was. I am always looking online at one make or the other and can't spend as much as they want for one. SR I am interested in more information on what happened to the Bob tach. The Bob tach plates I have made were copied after the ones from Bobcat. I built them out of ¼" plate and had the metal supplier bend them to match the U profile of the original Bob tach plates, then cut them to match with a plasma cuter weld on the top plate and wedge. For anything I have built they seem as strong as is needed but with the pressure of digging with a backhoe pulling on the lower horizontal pins I can see how an issue might happen. I was thinking if the boom is in the middle it might put less stress on the pins. Anyway it looks good and would love to hear how well it dug for you. [/QUOTE]
