3 PT Carryall box ?

[DonT-B7500]

Here is the caryall that I made, it is actually an old mainframe computer frame that was cut down, I have since added a concrete mesh to the sides so things dont fall out, I also have a piece of plywood cut to size so I can use it as a work bench

Yikes,

It cost $355.65 to ship the No. Tool carry on 3pt carry-all.
That's more than the item itself, 349.99

Bob,

It sounds like your wife is very resourceful, so why don't you utilize her many skills and get her input for what she wants on "her" carryall add-on.

She could probably even make it herself!

Thanks Clem & Your correct , theres not much my wife cant do , nor afraid to do . & she will be the one Instructing me on what she wants it to haul & carry .

I,ve been rounding stuff up to give Her choices as to what to use for it. But I really like the one in the video & I hadn,t even thought about the PVC pipe . Thanks again . Bob

Hi Bob,

I got one of the 3-point carry-alls from Homier in Indiana for about the same purpose as you have in mind. But after I got the project started I thought I should make the box easily removable. So I am going to attach it with a couple of hitch pins. My thinking was that if I wanted to take the box off and use the forks to move a pallet it would give double duty. I would almost be tempted on a small tractor to use a landscape wagon and lift it up with the forks. But my wife has the landscape wagon already.

Clem, those videos have a couple of good ideas. I would use something besides caps on the end of the PVC pipe or it will just get broken out from dropping a shovel in the pipe. The gardeners out here have a similar setup on their landscape trailers for the shovels and rakes, but they use 2 pieces of PVC inline so they can put a bungee on the handle in the middle. They also use a piece of wood along the bottom as the stop for the handle.

One tip I can give is about tie down locations, you can't have too many tiedowns available. I have used pieces of chain bolted down every foot or 18" for small tie downs, they would great with bungee cords.

Thanks Bruce , I have a forklift also , Otherwise that would make sense to have the box removable . I,m not sure what other use I would need it for other then forks .

I just have to find the time to mess with it now , as this has Moved down the ever growing Honeydo Priority list . Bob

Bob,

Aren't you glad that you are retired so you have all the time in the world to do whatever you want, whenever you want to.
