Hay. Good guesses. I am looking at it and wondering if I could use it for those things as well!! But those ideas aren稚 my intentions for its use. I like a little fine tuning on it, then when I take a pic of it in place my intentions for it should be clear. Thanks for guessing. Anymore ideas?

Something to mount under the seat that serves as the lower section of a cab enclosure?

Something to limit the oscillation or articulation?

Anti Theft device? Can't turn the tractor left or right? Castle Nut Holder so it is easier to wrench on? Heavy Duty beer cup holder?

Just to broaden this a little, did anyone put a quick attach plate on a commercial attachment and find it did not work out. I did one and only used it once. It did work though.

It's an acetylene welding cart in case you can't guess.

But moss, moss, moss (lol) so when you push down on something hard like a Mimi hoe, trencher or when I just dont want that sideways PT pucker, say while side mowing or digging out the side of a hill. Now grant you this, it is something that will only be used occasionally. And I am also aware that the pucker can arguably be deemed a warning before the Pt turns over.
Bob what was that attachment that did not work out?

It's a cart with a quick attach plate on for my gas welder. I already had the cart, but now I can easily carry it with my PT. I did use it to fix a neighbors mail box in place.
