Well, I broke down and bought a carry all frame

Carry all frames are great. You can turn them into very versatile tools. I use mine a lot. I based my design on an old YouTube video by Wilson Outdoors then added a lot of extra features. I have attached some pictures that may give you some ideas on how to build yours.

I also made a couple of YouTube videos showing all the features and how to build it. You might find them helpful.

Good luck with your carry all build! You're going to love it!

It is one of the best values out there. I have the same TSC unit and have 700+ lbs of lead in the back for counterweight. Using lead gives me a good sized space for chainsaws and tools.

Your post inspired me to get one. I also happened to buy 48 t stakes while I was there so as soon as I took it out of the bed of the truck I used it to haul the t stakes. It’s going to be very useful. Thanks for the tip.

The TSC carry-all frame is not compatible with a quick hitch system unless you create additional space behind the lifting links. I did this by adding a 2 X 4 board to the vertical frame member before attaching the back boards of the carry all.

I wound up with a simple L-shaped carry all, but added some anchoring ring bolts to the top and sides of the frame. It's very useful for many of the tasks I do such as carrying a brush saw, chain saws, fuel conainers, shovels etc. to a job site. And it allows me to use my FEL as an FEL at the same time.
