Simple chain carrier

[beowulf]

Could always weld couple J hooks on box blade for the chain,hope you dill couple holes in bucket for drainage.

Actually, I don't leave the 'bucket' hanging there unless I am going to do something that requires a chain. Those particular 'buckets' provide a nice handle so can I can lift off, carry away and put on easily. Holes in the bucket are a good idea though.

Safely carrying chain and tools on tractor attachments are used everyday. Good idea with the feed buckets.

Beowulf: What did you use to attach the 6" PVC pipe to your loader upright?

Actually, it was what I had here already. I will try to attach the Home Depot links to the items I used - or to similar items. To hold the top of the ABS pipe against the loader upright I used an ornamental black T bracket, the horizontal T part was shaped around the ABS pipe. The vertical part of the T slipped nicely into the gap in the loader upright. For the bottom support I used a 2x4 stake holder (or something similar) bent/shaped in a vice to fit my needs and attached it with some self tapping screws into drilled holes. Simple but works fine and lifts off as necessary.

Some pics of the holder pieces separately below. Earlier photo shows it installed on the tractor.
