@@buildingwithbrian have you used it? Besides i said it was rough, I didn’t say it couldn’t stand up to ploughing sand. The crowning glory was painting it red, it is akin to putting lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig. Ok a bit harsh, and I don’t know how long you’ve been doing it, keep going don’t let dicks like me put you off👍
I don't take random people on the internet seriously. I've used it a bit mostly chipping rock, not as much as I had hoped. I ended up selling the BH77 and it went with it because the BH77 was super slow.
@@buildingwithbrian I’m not sure what machine that is, I take it’s about 1.5 ton or so. When I was doing a bit, well from 16 to my mid 40s my main job was welding for Demag, komatsu , Terex and so on. The smallest excavator was about 40ton up to 1000ton walking dragline ( Marion ) It’s always a horses for corses thing when it comes to welding as you said, it did the job. I hated those plasmas, can’t really see what your doing and if it’s not cutting well, not a lot you can do but change parts. I much prefer oxy acetylene.
I used it probably a dozen times for about 12 cubic yards total before I sold the backhoe and let it go with it. I bought an excavator so the BH77 wasn't being used.
What, no plowing through the Ground? Im sad now :D Im going to build sth similar but with several Rippers next to each other. Hopefully i then can scoop the dirt up with my Loader.
@@buildingwithbrian Ok, you welded bosses on one side so you could have bolt holes to hold the pins. Just weld a pair on the other side too. Will keep the pins aligned and make everything last longer. Nice work. Cheers from Australia.
@@buildingwithbrian The bosses are the bits of tube you welded only onto one side. Put em on both sides and the ripper, pins and hitch will last longer.
