This is going to be easier then bending down to pick stones!
£7 more than the cost of a pair of kramer brackets!

I made one up for my JCB 3CX when I took over this place and the previous owner had left a few hundred tons of soil liberally mixed with demolition rubble - mostly bricks, in a big pile in the orchard.

I got a 3 foot standard bucket, cut out the bottom, and welded ribs in at slightly less than brick spacing. Worked a treat. Reminds me I must put it on eBay !

Planning on making a sloping hopper top to sieve mucky rubble, like the intake hopper on a crusher. Will try to make it tall enough to sit over a trailer.
