i have wanted a carry all for some time now but the few i looked at were crap,i would break them in 5 minutes. there are some dear ones but cant justify paying that for a carry all. decided to build my own, when its finished it wont break and will have costed me 2 days labour and $100 in materials, much better. then i will also make a 3PH towbar for it also.

Looks like your working on your stuff at work! I think you mentioned you work for a municpality? Thats a great perk, or either you got a nice shop.

Thanks for the idea. I think I'll take some time tomorrow and make myself one of these. It'll give me a nice break from fixing my tractor (seeing as it's almost 100F here, recently). They do seem simple enough to make.

I'm wondering how tough it'll be to fabricate a dirt scoop, seeing as I have no FEL on mine.

A dirt scoop is one of the least expensive implements. I put an add on Craig's list wanting one and put down a $100 for the price. A gentleman called me, told me he had one, I picked it up. I see them on Craig's list in the $150 range every once in a while. I don't think you can build one for that. Here is an example. Farm Implements for sale

Neat lives in Australia... Might be a different ball game over there.

Some more of my senility coming out. I knew that! Sorry. Wait a minute, I was referring to Domush fabricating one.
