love your grapple and dozer

Nice video. I must admit, at first I thought it was a factory built super grip! Nice job! Anyway, I'm building a similar grapple for my tractor, I hope it turns out as well as yours did. Thank you for the video.

If you would like to make this exact same one the files are available to download on grabcad.com thanks again for watching

Hi Wonderfully imaginative design and clearly very functional. Just curious as to what gauge and grade of steel you use and how you cut and welded it up Thanks

[@cruise982001]

+brad Smith I used 3/8 inch A36 material I cut it with my homemade CNC plasma table

Excellent work! Did you design it or build it from plans? When did you build it & how much was your total materials cost? What did you use for hydraulic parts & where did you get the parts from? Thanks in advance and thanks for sharing!

[@alliered13]

Do you have any detailed plans available that we could get?

[@cruise982001]

+alliered13 yes I do have plans

+alliered13 I have recently uploaded the CAD drawings to grab cad.com The link is in the description

I designed and made it from scratch It took me about 3 weeks to figure out all the moving parts it was a lot of trial and error most of the Materials I had and what Materials I didn't have I had To buy. hydraulic parts I bought at wwwsurpluscenter.com I used a 2"bore 6" stroke cylinder so the total cost for me was only about $150 hope this helps
