My motivation was a fear of tipping over beside a tree that would slide down my side of the ROPS while I was buckled in.

I sloped and narrowed the top section for limb deflection and to minimize clearance issues somewhat.

Limb risers or "sweeps" as I say sure do help doing anything in the woods and mowing field edges.
Nice work on both.

Looks like a nice set-up. I can see limb risers and the cage above and around the operator. I suspect you have other changes that are not so obvious in this photo. Is there a belly pan, or a grill guard? Other things I'm missing?
It's completely wrapped from front to almost the rear

Worth every penny, nice work.
The last thing you need to be worrying about while operating in such areas. They can sneak up on you in a second.
