- Easy way to make your own tooth bar for your compact tractor. All you need are shanks, teeth, and flat bar stock. Its easy to weld up your own tooth bar to easily dig into compacted soil and the cost savings is huge compared to buying a pre-built tooth bar.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Good advice on using teeth with top dowels, rather than side ones. I did not think of that. good video. And thanks for the link for the teeth.
What a great idea,I would much rather have your tooth bar than a store bought one.
Great job Sir!

Thanks!
Thats a pretty cool setup, saves drilling 2 holes per tooth in your bucket! Thanks for the great video!
absolutely! only two bolts holding on the entire bar.
Great job my friend!
Nice welding!
Thank you!
Excellent video, I think I have a new project for my LX. Cheers
Thanks for the great video. Been debating between diy like you built or a piranha. Nice welds too.
Thank you. I like the DIY bar because of the tooth length and replacability. the Piranha's are nice though
Drill bit trick is awesome. Kinda mad I didn’t think of it. Used it already in the shop.
Yea! otherwise its soo difficult to measure how thick the plate needs to be
Outstanding, subscribed!
Thanks!
Nice job looks good
Thanks!
Great info brother
Appreciate it!
I almost did this but the shanks and teeth together would have been the same as a tooth bar from vevor. I had to modify for my application. Did a video on digging with it vs the smooth bar.
I havnt seen a tooth bar with big teeth like I used on a bar for a tractor this size. Are the ones from vevor excavator teeth like the ones I used here?
Great video, thank you! Would you please link where you bought the teeth. TYIA.
Yep, I just updated the description with a link
Thanks for the video. I have been debating on making my own. How easy is it to remove? Is there anything you need to watch out for not to bind so you can get it back off?
I made mine tight. Could have made it with 1/8 or 1/16th less in bar stock thickness. Other than that not really
Good job but advice from a pro welder , you should have started from the front of the tooth and not left crater in the front where all the pressure is gonna be , did this hold or did they start cracking where the crater was ? I’d say with how the tooth went on will help you with the crater not breaking
I REALLY need to learn to weld...
It opens so many possibilities! I would definitely recommend you learn.
what is a good supplier for the shanks and teeth for this build ?? I would like to build one of these for my tractor .
I got mine off amazon. Check the discription below
This a great video! You’ve inspired me to build my own. And super good welding. Do you have the source for the teeth and shanks?
Yes, there is a link in the discription
@@appalachiandiy2415 Real good vid, those teeth are at this point, unavailable and undetermined when will be.
Where did you get the 5/16" steel flat bar from ? Thanks
From a fab welding shop. T D Fabrication. Clearfield, PA

Wish I knew how to weld.
Its probably one of the handiest skills to have. Best advice I can give you is go buy a used/cheap welder and watch some youtube. Formal training is great too if you have a tech school near you
@@appalachiandiy2415 if one does not know how to weld most areas might have a mobile welding guy that can help a person out or take the loader bucket off the tractor and take it to a local welder
Price of that vs buying a prebuilt one?
All depends on how cheap you can get the teeth. Thats the most expensive part. Most store bought ones dont have as big of teeth either.
Titan Attachments has kits, look on Amazon. Unless you have a local source flat bar is difficult to find. I got a 48"x2"x.20" from Amazon but my John Deere's bucket is 53". They only had one so the next closest thing was a 36"x3"x.12". I got a set of five mini-excavator shanks and teeth. I placed the 2" on the cutting bar of the bucket and tapped the shanks on, they fit perfectly. I welded the shanks on the 48" bar and cut the correct length pieces of 3" to extend the bar to 53" and make the bolt on ears. I welded those on and the used a cobalt step bit to drill two mounting holes on each side. My 23 hp tractor is not powerful enough to damage the bar.
The Titan kit comes with a thicker bar and precut mounts. Price is about what I paid.
