Nice fencing setup!

I'll bet you can paile quite a few posts and roll of wire or two on there. hammer and nail bucket and go!

I bought mine from TSC for $120. put floor and back using 2x10 CCA. One of the best implement I have since I do not have FEL. works great. I can easily lift 600-700 lbs not including the carry all weight. I do have 3 suitcase weight for the front.

Yes Sir, I'm making it up as I go. Totally utilitarian use of what I have. I pre-tension the barbed wires using tractor and come along does the finesse tensioning. I further raise the wire to the height I need with 3-pt lift... What else a guy could ask?

P.s. My first real attempt of being a gentleman farmer, got 150'x15' plot plowed out using a middle buster, I'm going to go over it with 5 foot 3-pt tiler and couple of gates and then it'll be between me and the critters "mano a mano"

Here is another TSC version. Very easy to build and a very usefull implement.

I just put castors on the bottom of the pallet structure that I bolted to the carryall. Don't need a dolly.

Attaching the casters directly to the carry all frame is a good idea in most instances. I originally had casters on the frame but they raised the platform a couple of inches. In my case, one of the primary uses is to transport my chipper/shredder from site to site. The two inches of extra height made it harder to get the C/S on the platform and also made it harder to operate the C/S once I got to the site. Another problem that I had was that the casters were always getting caked with mud. I probably I could have resolved both problems by recessing the casters a bit. Casters or no casters I think the carry all is one of the most usefull implements that I own; and least expensive also.

Does anyone have experience with 3-pt carryalls like those carried by tractor supply or Northern tool, I don't remember which. The one I saw was rated for 1500# capacity I believe and had manual dump. Seems handy for chores like haulin' wood and the like.

Here's a pic of mine with modifications ( I added the wood). As Harv would say, "more useful than a shirt pocket" ...
