Having to much free time, so I made a quick attach, a hammer, and some auxiliary lines on the stick for my 870.

Nice job! The quick coupler looks great, I like the combination with the bucket on it. I have never really liked the look of the WSI 870 but this makes me want to get one now

Thanks Vin! The quick coupler combined with the bucket reminds me of the Cat 385BL ME you filmed. The 870 is a real nice model, I recommend it, especially the Mammoet Livery one.

Those all look really good! You did a good job on the hammer and lines.

So now that it is attached to the qc when you open the grapple how much further does the back grapple move?

If at first you don't succeed, then maybe you should do it the way i told you to in the beginning.
