Made some ugly forks for my loader

Needed to move some cedar that was cut by the electric company and left on the other side of my fence. So I made these ugly forks for the paulson. They ain't straight but they got the job done

Good work, they do come in handy. When I did a lot of trimming and had a lot of crap to move, I just took two large C clamps and clamped two steel fence posts to the bucket. I clamped them where the big wing type brackets were on the posts. It was surprising how much they would hold.

Self Satisfaction must not be one of your strong points.
just a temporary tool till i get my grapple done, no need for them to be perfect

As long as they're doing what you needed done.

I've been toying with the idea of making an adapter, where I could flip my rake upside down and change the angle so that the fingers would become 36-fingered lifting forks. :)

Probably need a hydraulic top link to make it work the best.

At least twice a year I am either cutting out a few small trees that I don't want or just picking up few downed limbs. I do like Caryc only quicker. I have two Tee posts leaning against my shop with two nuts and bolts in each, and it takes just five minutes each time to mount them, then an hour or four later to remove them.

that might work. I've seen those rock rakes pretty cheap at auctions.
