carryall use

[Fabro]

Hi TBNer's'
Just wondering how many uses I'll be able to get from my ordered worksaver 3pt forklift type carryall? I bought it to carry a water tank to water my veggies and corn and to put a crate on to transport them to roadside sale.
It's not that I'm not creative but this forum has alot of great ideas. Any imput would be great..

Fabro - I bought my carry-all to transport water to trees, to move my generator and/or air compressor to worksites around the property, and for use with my tank sprayer.

I added some 5/8" decking to mine and carry all kinds of stuff. I also added a piece of angle at the back and put a ball on it so I can backup to my 5x8 utility trailer and easily connect to it when I need to pull it around.

Add a grader blade to the front of it and it makes a great finishing tool. It is also great to take that heavy stuff in and out of the pickup and haul it where you need it.

wow thanks for the replies! Nice pics Mfrost, that 750 looks sharp. I always loved those older John Deere tractors. I was thinking the round fork design on this thing may aid in moving a few round bales we have.

I bolted a pallet to mine and use it as a mobile tool platform..

I have a feeling that it is going to be used alot more than I expected because it will carry alot of things that you cant get in a loader bucket.
What I think would be a great Idea is to have A big dump type box on a pallet style frame work that you could set down on the ground, load with the loader of the same tractor and then pick it up, transport it where ever you need it and dump it. What do you guys think? It would take the place of a dump trailer although you couldn't load it with too much real heavy stuff like gravel!

Use it as a multi-purpose ballast box for FEL work... much more compact than a rotary cutter hanging off the back, for example.

I bolt my Northstar to this carry all (notice Pat's Easy Change) but also will carry anything I can fit on it. This was 48 bucks from Ebay and is rated at 1000 pounds.

Tree roots, 6x6s, 4x4s, boards, tools, scrub, bushes, my garden tractor, whatever I can get on top of it, I use it for. Best 50 bucks spent on this machine. I had to drill and put the PT boards on it though. Another minimal cost.

Went to buy a carryall at lunch today and the dealer had a king cutter carryall for $100 or a KK pallet carrier for $240. Said he would drill 4 holes in my pallet forks and it would be an effective carryall with the ability to also carry pallets, such as grass at my sons new yard.

Anyone else gone this route and opted for pallet forks rather than carryall?

I have a TC24DA with front wheel drive and front bucket.

Thanks,
