Carryall Build with Photos

txvoyager · Feb 13, 2010

I just finished mine today, although it has been evolving over the past several weeks as I've had time. It started with a King Kutter Carryall from TSC and 5/4 decking:

I added a trailer hitch receiver so I can pull a trailer for brush, etc.:

I added 2" PVC pipes to one side so I can carry shovels, trimmers, etc.:

The sides now hinge in so that I can carry long "stuff":

I added a little toolbox on the back side:

I like the way it turned out and look ofrward to using it! To give proper credit, many of the ideas cam from the Wilson Outdoors "Ultimate Carryall"

Where did you get the steel Carry All Frame that matches up with the iMatch quick connect? I have been looking for one of these, and they never seem to completely align, with out requiring extensive modifications.

I made this one for tractor drives! Bought an old frame at a farm auction for $5, threw the rotted wood away. Had to do just a little repair on the original frame, then welded the outer frame up, added the CCA plywood floor & sides,paint & decals. The top rail is 1" plastic conduit. It too, has a 2" receiver hitch on it.

Don't do the drives anymore, and have sold the 520, so I really don't have much use for it now! ~~ grnspot110

Nice work on the extra features.

I have a receiver hitch on my carryall as well and I'm thinking of making a tool tray that mounts in the receiver. Maybe something in the 2foot x 3 foot range. Seems that when I'm using the carryall for carrying brush, I always wind up with my chain saw and shears buried under the brush. If they are riding in a separate compartment this wouldn't happen.
