I wanted to use my Titan 3 pt forks to lift and move some light brush to burn piles so I had a post fabbed and welded to pin the top of the hitch to the bucket. I think It'll come in handy for light work.
Had a weldment made for the bucket

+1, especially the horizontal welds, verticals, not so much. Looks like a SMAW weld with insufficient amperage..
Sure way to tell is see the underside of the weld to see if the metal was heated through.
Aww... there’s no reason to belittle a man’s accomplishments..? A guy does what a guy needs to do and it will probably get ‘er done!
Good injun-ooitey, IMO!
Much heavier and the cold welds would break....
Whatever it is. Moldy hay or straw or whatever. Looks light though.

What did you do today Flip wake up on the grumpy side of the bed? I will bet you had to learn how to weld long ago and the first ones were not pretty. Maybe he does not have any one to teach him.

You know what else looks like poop? A bunch of your posts. Just being honest
Flip.
Just one time try to say something nice. You might be surprised how you feel or maybe not.

Maybe he has a bad back or medical condition that prevents him from doing it manually. Or, maybe he likes doing projects. Or, maybe he just likes to be on his tractor or use it to make life a little easier. Man....
Just calling a spade a spade...oops that is racial today, sorry. Just telling it like it is, nothing more. I'd never post a picture on a public forum like that. Those are cold welds, plain and simple.
Of course being part African American (I prefer Negro), I should have a pass on that.
Which part?
Probably my skin tone George. As the summer progresses, I get darker and darker and even in the winter, I'm pretty dark, well, a nice shade of brown. My Grandad was American Negro, my Grandma was pure blooded Cherokee. My dad was Pennsylvania Dutch and his grandparents were plantation owners so I have a plantation owners last name, interestingly.
None of it bothers me in reality but I have gotten to experience racial bias first hand (when growing up) and I'm 100% against the crap that is transpiring today with BLM and all that destruction stuff.
Why I'm critical of sub standard stuff like crappy welds that someone posts for all to see.
I'll leave it at that. Suffice to say I've been (and lived) on both sides of the fence.
