Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! I put a lot of thought into this contraption. It has been everything I imagined. Such a handy tool. Glad you liked my video! Thanks!

Excellent work. It's great having that 3 dimensional mind and being able to see in your mind what you want to fabricate. It's an art and skill rolled into one talent not many people possess.

Very well said. Great compliment👍

Awesome build, great idea.Sweat equity pays good money.

looks nice can't wait to see it pick stuff up

That was awesome! Can’t believe you built all that! However I will say, I really enjoyed watching you paint it. Did something for my OCD so for that I thank you 😂

Thank you!!

You should get one of the harbor freight Porta bands, I always thought they where overpriced but after using it for awhile I dread the times I have yo go back to a grinder. Fyi the reason I got it was after a trip to the doctor to have something dug out of my eye 1/10 do not recomend so you might as well pick up a face shield at harborfreight too lol

Look A deer that ain't no dear that's a t Rex runnnnn

I built the same bucket :) Nothing better for popping out boulders or transplanting trees! Now I have to build a thumb :(

Excellent work. I would like to build one the same as yours. Could I get the width and length of the grapple jaws.

Nice build brother. I have two questions. 1.) Is that John Deer Green or Kenny Green Green? 2.) Why is the tire on the boat trailer flat?

Hahaha!!!!!! That was John Deere green. Kenny green was in the background 😂 The tire won’t hold air!! It has a cut in the side

Check out Outback Wrap for the hoses

How much would this cost vs buying one already made?

They do not make one like this for my tractor. I had to custom build this one. I have seen some go for around 2 grand. It probably cost me around half of that in metal and the other materials.

A lot of that depends on the metal you use and the price of it at the time. I currently have a bit over $700 in a 3rd function kit and about that in 3/8 AR400 plate. Still have to buy cylinders and the necessary hoses and fittings. But that is for a 4' grapple. This could probably be done for a lot less using mild steel. And, I've had all that for several months and have yet to make a single cut on the plate.😳🙄 If I keep working on all my other projects, including the one I need the grapple for, it will not be needed because the project will be finished. 🤣 This was a fantastic build video, short, to the point and not 45 minutes of yackity yak lookit me and 5 minutes of actual build like most youtubers. Hats off to the builder and thumbs up!

The build was nice, the 1,000 mph blur of a demo was not. That's what we really want to see.
