Tractor Carry All is now constructed, attached and working. Fun Winter project, but
now time to work.

The first benefit was the stability it added to the tractor, especially
when handling a load in the bucket.

Nice to now have a place to put the landscaping tools, splitting hammer,
and log roller without taking up room in the cargo area. The side tubes
are easily detachable with inner turn mounts.

Both cargo sides easily slip out of slots in the floor and grooves in the back
to create a flat bead area to haul long lengths.

SMV sign and tool box are slip mounted for easy removal. Sign fits on both the upper
rear corner, and the center of the rear gate.

The fitted hard rubber mat (also removable) is great. Nice cushion for cargo area
adding protection for the base boards, water repellent, non-slip surface for cargo,
and good grip while standing on it. Easy to remove and clean.

Trailer hitch adds the ability to haul an additional cart, wood splitter, etc..
Saves a lot of trips back and forth to the work site.

Rear gate is minimal size and is used to prevent items form falling out when traveling.
Easily removed and left behind when not needed.

Water bottle holder and chain box will be added soon.

Had help form my Grandson Grady. Fun working on this project with Grady in the workshop.
Always ready to climb aboard and try out the latest addition.

Nice design followed by very nice workmanship! I am sure it will serve you well. What is the rectangular orange thingy sitting in between the uprights of the metal frame???

Nice work! Great attention to detail in every aspect.

Good to have the little helper... my youngest son is 6, and makes me proud... eager to help and willing to stick with me all day doing most anything around the farm.

Love the craftsmanship and the details. :thumbsup: Have to say that I personally kind of like the ''back and fourth trips''. :D

Very nice job - looks like you thought of everything. :thumbsup:

I see you put a hitch for your splitter on it and I have a question about that.. I was going to do that on mine as it seems it would be real handy. I didn't do it because I thought cornering would be hard because of the big swing the rear end takes. Does it work OK or is it hard to manage and tend to jackknife
