Design. Build. Test. " Monkey Claw" - new equipment attachment
What happens here
The main structural components of the 'Monkey Claw' are fabricated. This involves grinding the edges of the steel pieces for proper fit and weld preparation. The forks are tack welded together first to ensure correct alignment before full welding. The main body of the attachment is primarily constructed from a combination of AR200 and AR400 steel, chosen for their wear resistance and durability in demolition and heavy-duty applications.
Goal: Assemble and tack weld the base structure of the attachment
