thanks your testimonials, I saw that the Chinese are building machines with different shapes, they are indulging themselves, but will they be efficient?

It this proper manitou one

It's a fair lump and gives about 4m more reach. I'm not sure the duck would handle it with much more than a couple of hundred kilos on the end I know the Tele doesn't like too much on the end with it fully stretched out

i like it a lot, i think they do one with a hydraulic winch plumbed off the aux. keeping my eye out for one but they dont seem to come up very often.

On jcb there is a black box on side of boom about size of fat packet
As the boom retracts there is a metal plate that covers it which tells the machine the boom is fully retracted and disables the sli for bucket work
If this black box where to some how end up with a 2p piece stuck over it then you can do what you like

tricky with tubed tyres :giggle:
My duckling has got tubeless floaties :)
I know tubes on tractors, used to have a double valve set up, a normal Schrader valve to inflate, then un screw that to leave a larger opening to fill with water.

yeh ... agreed .... but 10.00-20 twins are just conventional Schraders on most ducks ....

Yes I'd like to see some too @craig 👍👍

Tbh @V8Druid the ducks nearly got more reach than it can handle anyway with the 3pc and offset boom and no legs to keep the arse down it's got some pretty serious reach anyway if I was to go for any sort of boom it would be a 3cx extending type boom so it could give more reach for digging /ditching and could be used for lifting if required

There are a few pix on fb of the whole bucket linkage and ram removed and then the two pins at the bottom of the boom used to mount it solidly to the dipper so no worry about the ram failing
bit like a fixed dipper extension ... lot of faff for a few lifts though ........

What man as done, man can do, what never has,maybe
Going off on a slight tangent, to this talk of jibs on ducks, has anyone done or considered water ballasting their tyres to get a bit more weight?
My duck has had the tyres foam filled cost £200 each but no punctures plus they are very heavy mine is a 170W but weighs 21 tonnes😳

was the foam put into the tubes Mog, or the tubes removed? or is Dai Woo on tubeless rims?

Just fill the tubes in the tyres through the valve, just told them how much pressure I run them at so that’s how much stuff they put in them have to leave them a couple of days to cure on their side

Can you get the tyres back off the rims once that stuff has gone off or do you have to have new wheels with new tyres once you wear them out mate?
