Hi i have drawn a bucket for a 226B CAT skid steer that i`m going to build for my skid. anyone interested give me a PM and ill email the drawings? Dennis
Progress on bucket Hi Some progress on the bucket from plate cut on guillotine, bending and laser cut parts. Will add more as i progress. Dennis
Bucket Can only upload 5 at a time Here are some more pics
Bucket 5x more pics
Bucket Here are some more pics. Will add more pics, at the moment i`m a bit busy with work so i can`t work on the bucket. Dennis
Very good. I am a engineer, design SSL everyday but do not made it by myself.
Looks pretty good!
Had some time and finished the bucket.
Finished finished
Top job there rooies!!:notworthy it turned out really well! what drawing software are you using?
Bucket Hi thanks. I`m using Solidworks 2010. We are a small engineering company and Solidworks really makes life easier for us. It also worked out much cheaper to fabricate my own bucket than to buy a new one.
Looks great! It was cool seeing the parts come togeather. Thanks for all the pics. :drinkup
Very nice work there!
Bucket Thanks, sorry for coming back so late seeing your reply. Was busy at work and did not have time to look around on forums. The bucket moved about 10 cubic meters(we use the metric system here in South Africa so don`t know the imperial value) so far without bending or twisting. Dennis
Thanks Jerry, i also think that it came out nice. Dennis
Hi - your bucket looks good. we would also like to build our own bucket. would you be willing to share your drawings/ detailing with us.
Hi yes what`s your email address? Also do you have solidworks or should i send you the pdf drawings? Regards
Great. That would be much better than tracing a one. We use CAD - So could you pls. send them as a PDF. My email is [email protected] Thanks.
Bucket Okay will have to add inch measurements because my drawings are in metric sizes. Will email them a bit later. Dennis
Great thank you very much. metric would be fine with us. we use both in Canada
Very nice work. :notworthy
Opps - I entered my email incorrectly. It should be: [email protected] all the best,
Thanks, luckily had a bucket from a friend that i took measurements off. Otherwise it would have taken a bit longer.
That`s okay. Check your inbox i did send the drawings. Let me know if anything is not clear enough. Dennis
I've been admiring your bucket. I would like to try to build one myself. Would you mind sharing your drawings with me too? I'm located in the United States but metric dimensions are fine. Many thanks in advance. Rob. [email protected]
Drawings Rob Thanks for admiring, well it`s really not that hard if you get the parts cut by plasma/laser. If you don`t have facilities to bend the bucket plate, mounting plates and step you can ask a metal fab shop to do it. Check your inbox, i did mail the drawings. Let me know if anything is unclear or if you need advice? Regards
Great bucket build! I'm also thinking to build one for my bobcat 775. It would be great to look at your CAD drawings. My email is [email protected] Regards Arnas
Bucket drawings Hi thanks, drawings sent. Let me know if anything is unclear in the drawings? Regards Dennis
Thanks for the drawings, they are very professional. will put some photos of my bucket build thanks once again
That's a great bucket. Looks really interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Pleasure
Thanks for the compliment.
