#45 Loader Replica

JDJohnDeere · Aug 18, 2009

Here is the #45 loader I made for my John Deere 720. I will be making a wide-front version for my JD 530.

For the loader mounting brackets, I used 1/32" aluminum scrap metal, and for the support arm, 1/4"copper pipe. For the loader itself, I used 1/4"copper pipe. I started out by making the scrap bucket, then went to a snow bucket because it loked too small. I am looking to make another scrap bucket with a detachable snow extension when I get more aluminum.
Tell me what you think! 8)

Thanks to all who supplied pics of the real thing!

Looking good how many hours did you tie up in the project several I would think.

I started at about six in the morning, and had it on the tractor at about 10 that night, then took it off again to paint it, I still have to maky lift arms though.
