   Just by chance ( more luck! ) yesterday, I was playing around on the computer and I stumbled across this cool little piece. It's been converted to an 18 hp V-twin, and the owner "scratch" built the loader and grapple! He also widened the rear wheels to get the big lugs to fit. The lift cylinders are from a White planter, and the 3-way valve is off a boom control on a spray rig. There's even a separate valve that runs to the rear.  Every time I think I'm starting to get pretty good at fabricating...I run across a craftsman like this gentleman was, that makes me feel like I'm a first day shop class student! His wife told me she had 9 more calls in the 2 hour span it took me to get there. I guess I should've bought a lottery ticket yesterday too. That straight pipe on the V-twin sounds good also.
