Buddy was using my loader and was trying to dig some large rocks out. Now the lower lip has been torn. Also has some cracks along the back cutting edge. Took it to a welding place which seem to have trouble coming up with a price to fix. Asked what was the max, and he even had trouble with that.
Found a bucket on another loader which had caught on fire a few years ago, but it is a smaller bucket then mine (2 yard). I can weld, only issue is I'm not great at it. Appears it will need a lot of heat to get it back into position. Have looked around for another bucket but coming up empty so far.
There is another shop in Tompkinsville KY that might be worth taking it to.
