scent 509 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 6.5 foot long jesus thats long piece of kit Quote Link to post
howsshefrom 32 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Yeah very long..my bar is about for foot handy carried with rubber on the handles to keep the lads from frezing haha As for a two piece bar iv never seen one but i imagine it would lack some stability? Quote Link to post
Alli 923 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 DO YOU MEAN T BAR ? EVEN SO AT THAT LENGTH IT WOULD TAKE SOME PUSHING DOWN. Quote Link to post
billythekid 38 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 me and my mates use them all the time we have a bar welded to a graft head and its in two pieces so it can go in back box on quad there good for keeping the dig square will c if i can get some pitcures up for you Quote Link to post
JR Yipp 111 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 good length bar. not a t bar a digging bar.needed in some parts, a fork, graft or axe head on the end are handy too. and yes you can do them in 2 parts, needs a good long thread and a collar to stop lateral movement.

welshhound2 20 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 1mtr size bar is ample for us as the norm light weight as well split in half with a decent length thread dont take up much room either Quote Link to post
Guest AngelicAcid Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 What would you say is a decent length thread for a bulldog shovel(uncut?) Them top ones look canny. Quote Link to post
Guest AngelicAcid Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Not the best of pics. Anyone got a step by step for a pice that connects and doesnt slip the thread. Quote Link to post

Bogger 243 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 try a grafter head welded on to a scaffold bar just long enough to fit in the van/truck and it goes through roots or hard ground as good as ote Quote Link to post

Waz 4,265 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Few pictures for you Nice work Billy. Ideal tool for chopping the sides straight from above while the other guy is at getting a sweat on with the shovel. Quote Link to post
