Thank you Sir! So many uses that my imagination went wild. For example: I have a tilt/dump trailer that has no way to tilt or dump because it is just a pivot point with nothing to make the bed lift up. One use for your attachment will be to lift the front of the trailer bed. I will not have to add hydraulics or a winch setup. Thank you!

my opinion - weld two triangular plates on the boom, one on each side. this allows the use of a single hole using a shackle or a pin inserted through both the holes and that gives you a place to hang a chain hoist, loop a chain, strap or rope over the pin for lifting. also makes the boom joint stronger. I would add two plates on the tip end of the boom also

Good luck I hope to see the boom lift build and use on your channel!

You got me thinking: 1. Hydraulic pump pressure ? Heavier duty pump ? 2. Engine RPM, did not hear it rev up when you tried to make that last lift ? 3. The lifting arms on the three point are short. Their travel, max up or down is all the travel you have to work with. Lengthening them will increase the the lifting height. ( up and down travel ) You may have already tried these ideas, if not......... I enjoy making pieces like you did. You'll get it figured out.

Something you might want is a self load trailer. We took a pair of 7k lb axles. Made a heavy duty trailer. Then we built an frame in the back like burial vault companies use delivery vaults. The top rail extends 5 feet over the back. We keep two sets of car jacks for safety. A short set and taller set for back of trailer. That way most clearance issues are covered. We put a gantry hook on the I beam. It clears the front by 30 inches. Just how the metal worked. We have a tool box in between the support rails on tongue. We keep jacks, chains, chain booms, straps, and a chain hoist to hang off I beam for lifting whatever. Works well and served me great before I had a loader. Plus depending on the auction this trailer may go too. Also great for getting borrowed equipment back home. lol

I have been trying to think of something to lift logs so I don’t drag the chains on the road. I really only NEED to lift one end but being able to lift the whole log would be nice. I have 2 other designs but both require a lot more metal and more work. Do you think yours would be able to do that?
@farmertylerranch43995 жыл бұрын
Yes this design would certainly do that. The limiting factor here is the tractors three point lift capacity and the metal used in the build. The main tube is .120 wall steel on mine (with gussets in critical areas) and so far it’s held up well. At the eye on the end I can lift probably 600 pounds. Eye in the middle probably 1200-1500

Farmer Tyler Ranch my only concern is while dragging them and turning the sideways torque on it. My brother is a professional welder and I was going to have him build it once we get a design.

I don’t know how heavy your logs are but I’m worried 2” would bend on you eventually, even with a .250 wall. Of course it all matters how long the arm is and how heavy the logs are and how you brace it. You could even put a “backbone” on it and that would help. If your brother is a professional welder he ought to have a good idea of what it needs to be. Good luck! Any other questions go ahead and ask

I like your idea of the geometry of the top link increasing you lift travel, but it comes at a cost. While your setup does offer more lift travel, it also deceases your lift power over a standard boom pole with standard top link. Remember, anytime you increase travel, you decrease lifting capacity. That tractor should lift the front wheels before the lift stalls.

How did you weld the plate? I kinda old & haven't touched a welder in 35+ years, but back then I probably would have used a 6011 or 6013 rod in an old Lincoln stick welder. Did you use a wire feed welder for the entire plate after you tacked it? Was difficult to tell how you did it from your fast forward video. Also, I just randomly selected your video, I enjoyed it & will be looking at your others vids too!!! Many thanks...!!!

Thank you very much for watching! I completed welding the eye on with my MIG welder using .035 wire and C25 shielding gas. I did an uphill root pass and a downhill cap. If I used my stick welder I would have used some 1/8” 7018 rod. 7018 is a better choice on clean metal as it lays down a stronger and more ductile weld. 6011 and 6013 dig in deep and burn through rust and paint very well but the weld is a bit more brittle and a bit weaker. 6011 and 6013 are really common choices when welding with an AC stick welder (like the old Lincoln’s) but when DC power is available I prefer 7018 in most cases. Glad you liked the video!! Thanks Bobblenuts!

Hey man, if you regularly need to remove large items like that off of trailers, trucks, etc., you might want to consider building an "A frame" with a gantry. You probably have most of the material laying around the farm but I would think a basic model can be built for around $1000 (+/-) in materials and a half days work. ( For those who don't know, a "half days work" for a farmer is a full days work for most folks!). But you can make it as versatile as you want ( mo' money mo' money mo' money!😉). We built one at a fab shop I worked at years ago and it paid for itself the first time we used it, and I'm figuring YOU ARE going to use it!

Hi Tyler, I’m not shure that I sow that corectly but at certain point when you pull left lever of hydroulic pump you also pull right one,and what you get at that point-that extra inch with no power cause you put max preshure on the valve inside of the pump and lower capacity of the oil to resist the preshure. I’m shure you know a lot about those staff. If I’m wronge exuse me.

Brilliant boom pole design there! Very well thought out. I drive by a New Holland dealer twice a day and have been comparing models to buy one. What model is that you have? Would you mind making a review video of it? Your likes and dislikes? Any issues you might have had with it and how the dealer is with warranty service? That looks like exactly the size that I want to work my 21 acres. Nice video and good luck to you!

Thank you very much Tom! My tractor is a 60 hp t2420 “Boomer” series. I’ll probably do a review on it one of these days. My recommendation is go for a more commercial line of tractor, not the bottom level like the Boomers. Didn’t have any warranty issues so can’t comment on that. It has had a few electrical components go out since the warranty expired and the tach gear stripped (plastic) so the tach no longer works. That’s why I say go for the commercial line where they don’t cut costs at every corner to save a dime. All that being said, I would get another New Holland, just not the entry level models. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching

We had the same home-build back-end loader . Was our only loader for years , we loaded a lot of manure with it . Every year there was a weld here or there that broke 😩. Loading manure or sand with it was very hard on the hydraulic manifold block of the 3 point hitch. It destroyed a few of it during the years.

Feeding by your lonesome, you gotta get clever! That worked really well. I like that boom. Any idea what the max weight you've lifted with it?

At the end of the boom I think I’ve lifted around 500 lbs. not sure about the new eye I welded on, still need to test that some more. Your tractor would lift way more than that though! My three point is not super strong. Putting the hoist on the end helps a lot too. Thanks Chris!
@DennysCountryLife6 жыл бұрын
@@farmertylerranch4399 That's a pretty long boom though, so lifting 500lbs at (I'm guessing) 7' from the pins is doing pretty good for that frame of tractor. I'm sure you'll double that or more with the new eye location.

Integr8er66 "the top link connection is seeing extream stress" Is that because it is pivoting on the top link instead of the lift arms?
@integr8er665 жыл бұрын
@@markgolembiewski4570 its because in that configuration the pivot point is right above the lift arms, and the lever ratio is about 10 to 1, so whatever weight you put pulling down on the boom pulls up on the diff housing at at rate of 10 to 1. So 1000lbs down would be 10,000 lbs up on the diff casting. Also the normal top link pulls in a horizontal direction, this pulls up and that is a direction that the casting was not designed to hold. Then throw in some side to side pressure which is also at a 10:1 ratio and it can go bad fast since on most tractors fixing this means a huge job of replacing the housing since cast iron doesn't weld well. Wow, I just saw you made that weld upside down.. You Da MAN! I would have had to take it off and turn it over, but my rig is a tombstone AC
