I had a cab made and the only advice I can give is use a lot of bolts and good welds.

The on I had made rattled apart in short order and was a waste of money. You can't imagine how much how much shaking there is on a tractor till to see weld break.

You might look at a B21 or L35 that has 4 post ROPS with a roof. Many rental yards will have a B21. I suggest you use something stronger than 1" tubing for the vertical posts. I would hate to see it crush down on top of you. I am not sure if I could bend a cab built out of 1" tubing to get out of it but I am pretty sure it would bend when you push the tractor up against a tree or if you rolled it. I have run the roof of my B21 into trees several times.

Depends on how involved you want to get, I spent the entire summer building mine and still have a few things to do to make it complete in my eyes.
