wish you had a better camera so as I could see were the pivot point is and how it is made, I am in the process of making a thumb, hope it works as good as yours

Excellent piece of engineering. Any idea of whether a fella could get one of those made up for a small Powerfab digger (I'd say a thumb unit about half the size of yours would work well) without breaking the bank?

That's relly nice.Where did you get the parts for it?

hey jay it looks really good the olny thing i would add is some more center bracing to keep it from twisting orther than that looks good keep it up
