3 pt. toolbox

[kcbarnes]

I finally found a toolbox that is big enough. It started as a carry all from farm & country. I cut a foot off the lower legs and installed a 2” receiver to pull a trailer or wagon. I then made a frame to hold the toolbox also purchased from farm & country and made a small basket in front to hold chainsaw gas and oil or chains. I also installed two chunks of 3” pvc pipe to hold splitting mauls or shovels ect. So now when I go back into the woods to cut firewood I can keep the saws and other equipment in the toolbox and maul, cant hook and stuff on the outside plus use the top of the box as a bench.

Great idea Kevin, especially for something like wood cutting with sledge, wedges, chains, etc. I think I'll make up something similar.

Looks nice Kevin! Is the tool box bolted to the frame or is it just sitting in the frame? It would be nice for a cooler also.

Right now it just sits in the frame, I may tie it down later. I didn't bolt it down with the thought that if I back into something, it may just slide up and out of the frame rather that get crushed.

Great idea...better than putting equipment in the FEL.

Looks like you got a good helper w/you. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Kevin, that's just proof that there is no end to the list of good things to do with a tractor. It looks like you have just found another one. Nice job!/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
