I have never owned or operated a tractor with a front-end loader, nor have I been around one being operated. Until now I have never felt enough of a need to justify getting one. I would consider getting one, but I think the odds of finding one in my area that would fit my '69 Ford 4000, that would be sold separately from a tractor, and for a price that I could afford, would be kinda slim. I have no hay to move around, I have no manure to shovel, and I have no dirt to relocate. My only need would be for something to bunch up brush and move it to a burn pile. I'm getting too old to do much of this by hand any more, so if I expect to keep up my 15 wooded acres I'm going to need help from my equipment.
I'm now thinking that for the occasional brush pushing and bunching that I would need to do, I could do it just as well using the three-point on the rear of the tractor. Have any of you bought or engineered/fabricated something along these lines? I'm thinking that some kind of a fork, with tines that would ride the ground and push up under logs and brush, maybe even grasp it with a thumb of some sort on the top, would work. It might be slow and awkward, but that's OK for no more than I would have to do.
