Another homemade 3pt. hitch reciever

[Von]

Just had to show off my new hitch reciever that I made./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif Total cost was about $1.00 for the welding wire and electric for the welder! made from all scrap that I had around and a old trailer hitch that someone gave me. The top part is off of my tractor where I changed over to the heavy duty top link mount. and the bottom draw bar is a homemade one that came with my tractor last year, since I already had one, this works out perfect for this application! Even the paint was free! Used it twice and what a big difference it makes when moving my flatbed around.

Very nice job, Von.

Very nice! I hate to admit it, but I finally broke down and purchased the one from Northern Tools. It is very nice, but a lot more expensive. If I'd only had the tools, and the time, and the .... - Wait a minute - If I factor the tools into the cost maybe it wasn't so bad!

Nice work.

Sounds like my theory.

My theory also goes part way to cover up the fact that even if I had the tools, I'd still bugger it up.

I did a welding course at TAFE but I think it's one of these things that unless you do it often, you'd be no good at it.

Or that's my theory anyway !!

Cheers
