        On a Jinma 284, what's a safe max lifting weight for the three point?

          Put another way, if a three point can lift a backhoe, how much do they weigh?

              This is why I asked, I want to be able to lift one end or the other with the box blade an inch or three and steer it where I want it.

                Cool. hailking

                Is that a hunting blind? I don't think you will have a problem moving it in a straight line but how about turning corners without a swivel type hitch?

                    I think it was a chicken coop turned aviary, It'll be a chicken coop again. A customer bought a place literally out in the middle of nowhere and had no use for this. He loaded it on the trailer with a 6 wheel forklift, it had around 200lbs. of concrete on each post with 4″ nails imbedded in the postsyell. After getting that out of the way (it wouldn't clear the fenders if I could move it) I leveled the posts and drilled 5/8 holes for axles and used threaded rod and $4.00 Harbor Freight wheels.laugh  It's going across 300' of fairly level ground and I figured if I put the three point under one end and lifted it up just off the ground I could tow it with the tractor just like a tow truck.hmmm

                        Try a 20ft container for size. 600 metres up a rough bush track then through a gully. Handled alright until the trailer wheel got stuck behind a big rock coming up the other side…

                        . Bent the 1/2 inch tow tongue.

                          Nice job kissass

                          Is that container sitting on a trailer or is it the trailer?

                              That's the trailer. Welded two lengths of 4×2″ box for it to sit on then dogged it down tight. For delivery just chained it to a tree and drove away. Put a high lift jack to hold the front end when it was ready to fall off the trailer. Containers are not as heavy as they look. By the way Bob, I finally dug out those videos. Now I just need to work out how to post them. Will start a new thread.

                                  Just an update. I've finally gotten somewhere on the coop project which is good since I have some tenants waiting to move inlaugh I hope to have this project and their run finished this week.

                                      Nice design with the laying box accessable from the outside. I should make something like that for my mother. Her flock keeps losing members to predation from dingos, hawks and pythons. Lately a big goanna is sneaking into the coop around lunch time and helping himself to the eggs. Such is life for a free range chicken.
