As for the Jib Boom I decided to be smart. Most sites offer the pre-made ones shipped for about 600 -800 bucks. Figured if I purchased a Universal Mount Plate and penciled up my own set of plans I would save a few dollars. So I drew up my plans and took them to a local welding/machine shop. Bingo.......got a quote for $150 to assemble & weld my custom Jib according to my drawing. So I ordered the Universal Toro Mount Plate from PalletForks.com Talk about fast shipping......got it in two days courtesy of Fed-Ex. Next week I will drop off the plate and plans. Was told it shouldn't take more than a couple hours. Will get some pictures and post them in the near future.

Dropped off the mounting plate & plan for the Jib this morning. Can't wait to see how it comes out.
