A novel PT 425 Use

[mlhunter]

There seems to be no end to what I can use my PT425 for. Attached is picture of using my PT425 to help level up a swing set from one side. We then leveled it in the other direction. Braces and extra screws were added along with ground leveling. It looked much better!

I also have built a simple wooden platform that I can insert in my 4n1 bucket that has already loaded a range and microwave into a PU, moved a refrigerator across the street to a neighbor, and hauled various other furniture and appliances around the neighborhood.

I am in the process of building a similar but smaller removable platform for the 4n1 bucket that will mount a 15 gallon FIMCO sprayer and 12v battery for sprayer power. They fit very nicely side by side in the bucket. This sprayer has a spot sprayer and will also have a twin nozzle setup that has an 80" spray width. It will be used at our home as well as on the farm for various spraying chores.

I could not get TBN's attachment to work so here's a different approach to adding pictures.

How do you insert a picture that large in the body of a post?
Thanks

That picture is actually stored on his personal site somewhere, with a link to it in his post here....

Yes, a 1.2M picture would be rejected by the TBN software. I do the same thing with my videos. They are on my personal website, which has a large storage capacity.

Nice, clear picture of that swingset, though. Lots of details VS a 100K photo.

KentT is correct. I stored the picture on my web site and used TBN's Instant Markup URL feature to include it. I believe one can also code HTML in this text box.

I tried a small picture with less than 100KB (37+ KB) and it still would not attach it. IMO the feature was not working at all yesterday afternoon.

Do you have any pictures of the carrier that you made to work with the 4 in 1? That sounded interesting.

I have also beeen thinking of a spray unit to mount to spray to the rear of the PT for weed control. I have seen such an item on a ATV and thought it would work on the PT.
Maybe one of those tanks from TSC.

Its a very simple plaform. Here's some pictures.

Light Work for the Platform

I plan to add chocks in the back of the 2x4s. While I haven't seen a real need for it I'd feel better about it not being able to come out if the "pinch" got looser.

Elegant simplicity is the ideal design. Thanks for the pictures. Looks like you have largely replaced the forks.
