Loader quick attatch conversion
A long awaited shop equipment upgrade! The first step was converting the loader to a universal skid steer attachment to make adding new pieces easy and change overs fast. The old Massey doesn't exactly have modern universal spacing so blank attachment plates and cutom brackets were required. I had just enough ½ plate kicking around to make brackets. I had to layout and cut by hand and mag drill the pin holes, no fancy cnc anything on this job. Do you need some Heavy Equipment

Adding a Catwalk
Surprisingly enough, t his was my first time installing catwalks / underguarding. The job went pretty smooth and the parts fit quite nice, they needed to be cut to length for the size of machine, but minimal screwing around otherwise. Do you need some Heavy Equipment repairs done by a mobile welder? Or a custom project fabricated? We are located in the Cariboo east of 100 Mile House and willing to take our mobile service truck off the beaten path to get the job done. Contact
