" thought then what a great idea, and it still is. "

I agree. It would be good for a toolbox, too.

There is approx 30 feet of chain in it right now. With the room that is remaining I am guessing that there is room for at least another 15 to 20 feet.

Super idea, and so simple. I usually have a chain on my floormat of the tc45 but I trip over it and it usually ends up under my feet. Now... if we can get a combination chain - shovel storage unit diagram I would fire up the wire feed. It seems you always are walking back to the shop for a shovel and or chain. They have those machines so compact it is hard to find an open spot to mount the essentials without creating a hazzard.

Here is a link to my earlier post.

Early post of chain box

About two years before I had the loader I had drilled the hole in two of these to fit the clutch housing holes where the loader bolts to. At that time I had one box on each side of the tractor.

The current setup is much more handy.

Here is the current setup. Soon I hope to have a chainsaw scabbard to mount on the RH side of the loader frame.
