i was wondering if anyone out there had a 3 point pond scoope out there.
i was going to get a front loader for my 9n but i decided that if they worked ok that it would be all i needed for the jobs i have around the small farm.
so if anyone has 1 let me know how they work.

I built a reversible one out of miscellaneous scrap steel a few years ago for probably less than $30; I stole the design from the units TSC sells. I've used it to move huge amounts of crushed rock, retaining-wall rocks and black dirt plus as a handy carry-all. Get one; you'll use it.

Northern Tool has Howse 3 point scoops 24" reversible for $170. I have had one of these for a couple of years. Works fine. Some folks look down on Howse, but this unit has been ok for me. Happy Tractoring. DickTN

I have one that I use on my 8N, I find that they are one of the best pieces of equipment you can use with the N series tractor. If possible try and get a reversible bucket , I've had both and have moved mountains of dirt, gravel , sand and compost. I also used mine for digging , leveling, dragging logs, hauling firewood, rocks and probably other things that I can't remember right now. One of the most versatile tools I own. Both mine have been Fords, the first one exactly like the one in book Ford tractor Implements by Chester Peterson & Rod Beemer. the second one , the one I have now is a later model 706 Ford.

Hi

All summer I have been off work with an catarac operation, have visited most days, summer is an outside time for me . Probably will be more regular now that the fall is setting in.

If you use it with the blade facing the back be sure to use sway bars, (which is a good idea in either direction,) it lessens the pressure on the lift arms when backing into a pile of dirt.

I have a 3 point scoop and they work great.
I have used it on a 9N, 2N, and my latest work tractor a 8N.
You can move a lot of dirt with them.
I recently bought a Restored Jubilee but Hydraulic problem prevents me from using it.
I expect to fix the Hydraulic problem next Monday or Tuesday. I plan on restoring my 8N. In my opinion my 8N is a fantastic tractor an excellent restore project.

Hi colleeder,
Click on the link below for some specs. Without a doubt, one of the best implements you can get vs. money spent.
I bought a used one for 125.00 about 3 years ago and have moved tons of dirt. You can mount it facing either forward or reverse and go to it. You pull a rope and it dumps, and then with the weight removed, it resets itself and ready for the next load. A bunch of fun.
