Trench, Ditch Or Fill Like A Dream
Myron Isaacson’s Dream Bucket is a slick way to dig or backfill with a skid steer loader. Designed to be used in either a push or pull fashion, the half circle design makes it easy to carve a swale or ditch, level a pile or fill a hole. Just change the pitch to dig as shallow or deep as your power allows.
“It works great for any kind of ditching or excavation,” says Isaacson. “It is ideal for feathering the sides of a trench or swale or making a ditch for laying culverts.”
Isaacson sells and services feed and manure handling equipment. In between he dreams up devices like the Dream Bucket and his Dream Steps (Vol. 39, No. 4).
The patented Dream Bucket is fabricated from 1/2-in. steel with 50,000-lb. tensile strength. It works with the standard skid steer quick-tach connectors and can be used with any type of loader, including tractors with front-end loaders, payloaders or backhoes.
“When it is used to pull backwards the down pressure is transferred to the rear of the skid steer or other carrier, providing increased traction,” says Isaacson. “We’ve used the 6 1/2-ft. model to go down a foot and a half without a problem. We do concrete work, and thanks to the great visibility, it is perfect for pushing dirt in around forms.”
Isaacson is currently making Dream Buckets in the 6 1/2-ft. width and pricing them at $740 plus freight. He says they can be fabricated in sizes from 4 ft. to 12 ft. wide.
“The Dream Bucket also does a great job pulling large stones out of a field,” notes Isaacson. “You can use it to dig out around the stone before hooking it and pulling it out. Then you can use the Dream Bucket to push dirt to fill in the hole.”
