Need something to haul dirt so I have been working on this in my head and finally got some of the parts in to start it.

Nice metal work. Are you making a drawbar for a pup dump trailer, or is that part of a frameless end dump? I'm curious what you have up your sleeve with the round servo horn. Do you have any more pictures or ideas you can share? I'm interested to see how this build progresses.

Was thinking of a pivot point and used what I had on hand. Thinking of a pup dump of some kind.

Waiting for the rest of the parts to arrive. Going to try and use a screw drive to dump and going to try a gate system like is on some of the euro style dumpers. Will post as I go.
