[QUOTE="flaboy?, post: 424923, member: 5749"] Ok, here is the latest update from the weekend. My question is, since this thing is so heavy and each cutter is connected via grade 8 bolts (seems like a lot of strain when lifting) what do you guys think if I made a bracket to connect the cutter bar to the curtain support. The curtain support bar is 1/4 inch 2x4 tubing. Way overkill if you ask me. Seems one could help the other when lifting them to the transport position. Cutter bar with the disc removed for blade change and some repairs. This is connected directly to the gearbox and when lifted two grade 8 bolts support all the weight. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v253/purplewg/Weld/cutterbar1.jpg[/img] Curtain support, this is the one I am thinking about tieing to the cutter bar. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v253/purplewg/Weld/boom1.jpg[/img] Worn out disc plate. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v253/purplewg/Weld/disk1.jpg[/img] Same plate resurfaced. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v253/purplewg/Weld/disc2.jpg[/img] Cutter bar reattached. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v253/purplewg/Weld/cutterbar2.jpg[/img] Cutter bar and curtain support attached.
