I’ve seen another video of this same kind of design. It’s a good idea. Definitely not a direct replacement for a loader but I can see how it could be handy in certain applications
I looked again at the video... You have a great chain setup and weights. Only problem is the compacted soil. A much larger machine would be needed to just run into that soil and get a full overflowing bucket. That said, it sure beats shoveling by a mile..
I have skidded plenty of 6"-8" trees with my 425 . Change the hydraulic fluid and filter 2 times as often as the factory recommends. I got rid of the tire chains and use deep lug ATV wheels, much better ride than the chains.

It was a matter of having the skills and time to build it but o money for something more serious. It worked amazingly.
@@lornetontegode6986 I hear ya, it’s always harder than it sounds initially. It looks good though, almost looks factory
You should market this! It's a great idea.
Very cute tractor and attachment. However, this work can be done by a wheelbarrow only very slightly slower.
If you've had three back surgeries and need to innovate, it works well but thanks for trying to make everyone live your life

very nice!
Can these still be purchased
good job on tractor
Do you sell plans please?
That’s awesome!!!
Is that a full weight JD ? Seems to have a bit of trouble moving a small amount of dirt.
Till it first. Then use the bucket. Would work alot better.
do you sell those?
Can it dig?
Not really. It doesn't angle below a flat grade but it can cut into a pile or mound though.
I dig it.
Lol
35 " is ok...54 is too big
U make it
Be careful that aluminum rear end won't hold up to real work
Not true. That is a JD 425 NOT a cheap POS you can get from Home Depot. These are REAL tractors. I have a 455 Diesel and it built like a tank.
Yep heavy duty
