Abstract: A straight edge for an earth-moving bucket has pockets on a plate which engage the bucket teeth. The plate extends back to overlap the bottom of the bucket. The straight edge is held firm by bolts through the plate and bucket. The straight edge is no wider than the bucket so that it can function as a digging edge. The straight edge is installable by a single person in a short period of time and without assistance.
