CNC Table Works

A new bracket design for a local customer. She wants a silo fire pit. Purchased a 21' diameter old silo. Talked about how many legs, 8 was the final awnser. Griffin Stearns did the 3d cad work. Customer signed off and we went to town cutting them on the Bendtech dragon, welding them up with the Miller.

Concrete anchors were used to bolt the bases down, tipped up each 10' 6x6 pressure treated post she chose to use. Had to trim them down to fit inside the steel brackets. Griffin helped set the top beams inplace.
Octagon firepit is going to be really cool once the steel silo roof and a couple bands on the sides are installed. We are not doing that part.

I needed a grapple for the tractor. I priced out what I was looking for as I usually do.

Found most are either built really liteweight or have almost zero tines on the bottom. Then looked around for materials that I had here to use and build my own. Took me roughly 4 days off and on to design ,cut everything and build it. 60"wide lower half and 50"wide lid. Opens to 45ish inches and with a single cylinder still has around 14k lbs. of force. That should be enough for brush cleaning and grabbing logs to do property clean-up. Its all 3/8 inch strap or plate, 1/4" tubing in different sizes. Should do the job ! Waiting on the 3rd. function valve system for the tractor now.
