Concrete barrel ballast box idea

[BMan2005]

Ok cool, I left it sitting where I poured it. Just finished painting everything, used some left over bed liner for the 3pt hook up so shouldn't be any rust no time soon. I'll share some pictures after it dries.

Thanks again for all these ideas guys!

All done and moved to it's permanent spot with the other implements. Didn't do anymore than snap these pictures & move it, but when lifted I could feel the front end have some pressure relieved. I think it'll be perfect for loader work & moving round bales of hay, not sure I still won't throw on the disk harrows when doing heavy grapple work.

Looks real good. You'll like using the FEL a lot more now.

Weld a large, 3d relief dinosaur foot shape onto the bottom. Lower it occasionally when your are out and leave tracks for the neighbors to find.

Now I know why there is so much Bigfoot talk in Washington. :laughing:

I'm looking to make one like this for my quick-hitch. This way, it's a fast EZ-on and EZ-off when I need it.

The 30-gallon fits like a glove for the quick hitch. This should be about 240-lbs of rear ballast.
