Here are some pics of the finished product. Welded them up yesterday, sanded the rough edges then bead blasted them before painting. The rounded part is done by bump breaking which is several small bends (you can see in pics). Because the metal is coated to except paint and resist rust I couldn't heat them and I didn't have a roller.

I was 1000' back in the bush when my tractor (B7610) died. After looking around I see the fuel filter is gone. I figured it got knocked off by the brush, but actually it unscrewed(<15 hrs.). We found the filter and oring is the brush and got going quickly.

I could not start my tractor 1 day and I could not figure out why. I had just fueled it up so I never checked that. Messed with everything else and then finally checked the fuel - EMPTY. My barn has a gravel floor so I did not notice a puddle or anything. I finally figured out that the filter had unscrewed a little - and leaked the fuel. 5 gallons of it. Not sure if it was a stick or just vibrations but now I check it every once in a while.

Great idea Gomer!

Sadly the bolts on my B7800 are configured differently in that area. Oh well, at least I have an idea on how to protect my B7800 filter now.

I received the guard today and am very pleased with it. The 1/2" impact gun would not break the bolt loose. Finally got a breaker bar on it and pushed it with my foot to break it loose. Looks good. Thanks

Great, glad you were happy with it. Those bolts can be a pain. I think I needed a breaker bar for mine too.

Think of it as helping a brother out:D If I sell enough of them it might cover the paint and time to make them. I'm not really IN the business just playing around. Now if I can find a post office with the boxes in stock I'll be golden.
