[QUOTE="ryantowry_81, post: 103400, member: 13806"] so the wife asked me to add a hose bib near her garden to water her plants easier, well it takes about 200' of hose to get to her garden from the hosue right now so I don't blame her. since I would rather build something than dig a bunch of trench by hand I looked through the scrap/ steel hording area and found this 4x4 galv tube and 4" angle iron sitting there and though why not give it a chance. 3 hours later I had this attachement to chain onto my forklift attachment. I know this is pretty crude but I think it will still dig a decent trench even with my little 530. we will see this weekend. Note: I did spend most of that 3 hours grinding off galvanized coatings for welding and was wearing a resparator to protect myself from the fumes from grinding and welding near galv coatings.
