Anyone use clamp on brush forks? I have 1.5 acres, includes the house, 4 outbuildings, and a pasture that is probably 3/4 acre. I would love a grapple, but the cost of a 3rd function and a grapple, or even an electric grapple seems silly if I can get the little bit I need done with some clamp ons. I don't have that much of a need, but I do have some stuff to clear so I can fence in the front yard on the property line and not give up 10 feet because I don't want to clear a little bit of stuff. Let me know if you've used clamp ons and if they work ok.

Where in Va. are you? I built these many years ago... What size bucket comes with your tractor? These are extremely LIGHT duty... brush mainly. These are not clamp on, but bolt on. Could possible use "C" clamps with it...
I am in Gloucester, 23061 zip code. My little bucket is 46 1/2 wide.

I build a rake for a B8200 I owned. The rake was made from 1" round bars, angle, and square tubing I had laying around. I had a ball on the top of the loader bucked (where most have hooks) and made a loop on a small load binder with short chain to go under the bucket and over the ball to hold it in place when clamped down. Had a clip on each side to fit over the lip of the bucket. Worked good. Easy to get on, stayed snug and never came off when using.
