I needed a transfer tank for my mulching company; after tooling around craigslist i found a good deal on a aluminum tank/ box with a pump. After i got it home I polished the diamond plate up, repainted the pump and made a skid for it. The idea behind the skid was I didn't want a tank in my truck bed all the time, also I wanted something I could put in my Kubota RTV to fuel up my mulcher on remote jobs. :cool: The skid is constructed of 3/16" angle with rectangle tubing pallet forks slip into. There are rings on all 4 corners to tie it down.

I think it turned out pretty nice and fulfills all my needs well. Would be glad to answer any questions or hear any comments. :thumbsup:
