Nick 13 #1 Posted February 11, 2009 I was poking around in the yahoo group photo album and found this picture in the "From Holland" album. Ive given thought to building what I would call a rock bucket for some time and this looks fairly close to some of the ideas. Might not get used often but would come in handy for sifting rocks out of loose dirt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rollerman 290 #2 Posted February 11, 2009 Nick knowing you I bet that be an easy fab for you. Do you grow that many rocks down your way in OH? All I ever found digging in my yard was some horse shoes & a pair of baby shoes...so I quit digging. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Operator 7 #4 Posted February 11, 2009 Nick can a rock digger put in his 2 cents worth, When you build your bucket don't put the cutting edge out on the end move it back a few inches so you'll have "teeth" hanging out. It will dig under better. Randy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelHorse_of_course 99 #5 Posted February 11, 2009 I hear the secret to growing big rocks is to fertilize with rock phosphate and jersey greensand :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick 13 #6 Posted February 11, 2009 Randy, Good point, I wasn't thinking about that when looking at the picture. This project isn't top of the list unless some cheap build materiel were to become available, then the bucket could get built sooner. A small version of this bucket could be a possibility also. Kind of depends on what I get hold of for building it. http://www.equipmentland.com/products/mds/...ck_sifter.shtml Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
