One more idea of a brush guard

[2515R Dude]

Upper part are welded together chain links, the bottom part is 1/8" metal.

I like that !! Very clever.

Contemplating pretty much same thing for my MF GC 1715.....

Nicely done.

That looks quite well done!

Looks well done, but with apologies, my concern is the size of the openings in the chain link may allow sticks to penetrate.

That looks great! I bet that was tedious work. Something I've lost my patients with at my age. I copped out and used expanded metal. When I lost the fondness of the way that looked, I bought a standard bumper/grill. Cudos to you for your craftsmanship.

Very classy. I would have never thought of doing that. Great shop time. Good for the Soul.

There's nowhere to stop when building a grill guard. So the intended use of the tractor should be considered.

the sky is the limit with that design. you could do a wrap around headlight protector as well and protect the front of the hood. Only disadvantage is time consuming to build but If you enjoy doing it. Nice work

I started with a flat guard. Then added wings. Then closed in the bottom. All in an attempt to better protect the front when using the FEL handling brush. It became a challenge to modify it and still have it fit between the FEL arms and the guard be tiltable.
