Welcome to TBN - here is what I put on my B21 - its some 1/2" plywood sandwich attached to the right side frame also a 1/2" thick steel. Simple but effective -now the saw doesnt need to ride in the bucket of the FEL or BH and is easy to access.

The hood clears the chain / ammo box without the saw in the bracket and the ammo box holds a 20' 3/8" chain and a shorter choker chain. The lift arms are clear the saw by about an 1" .

Welcome to TBN

I moved your thread to the Chainsaws forum.

I like your idea there , but on my JD 2520 it's pretty tight and the crossbar for the loader is angled.
My plan is to make a plate with the brackets bolting to the Rops mount.That way it's easily accessable from the seated position-cutting down a branch or something like that.
I don't have any designs yet but I'll talk to my buddies at work, and you guys and see if we can come up with something. I have full access to welders , iron worker, cutting torch etc.
If you guys can come up with something that would work, I'll do the work on the prototype.
