Trenching bucket build

I needed to dig a trench to run electrical to my pool for the filter. I had been using a long extension cord and I was tired of moving it every time I needed to mow the grass. So I built this trenching bucket for my 644 LBH.

Last pics for the trenching bucket build. All the metal was 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" except for the cutting edge which was 1". The bucket is the same size as stock Case bucket except for the width which is 9". I only used it one day but it will be used more this summer when I plan to dig trenches to run pvc drainage piping.

Outstanding work Harry!
Wow!
Did you copy the shape from the other bucket?

Yes the cardboard templet was copied from my wider case bucket that was on the 644lbh when I purchased it.
