Those toolboxes, fire extinguisher, chain box, etc. look great. You must have a whole lot more room to work with than I have on my 29. There is no way I could mount any of that stuff and still have room for my feet or to work the hand controls. Nice work!

Thanks Rich. I've never seen a 29, but there was plenty room for this stuff with no interference from anything. I wear size 12 boots and the chainbox leaves plenty of room. The toolboxes also leave plenty of room to jump overboard should I have to!

The design flaw I have is with the drink holder on the right side! Since it's mounted to the toobox lid, I can't open the lid without spilling my drink, so I have to make sure I complete the drink before opening. I find myself having to stop to pee all the time now! If I take up beer drinking, I'll be too sauced to work.

If anyone has any ideas on how to solve this problem please let me know! ;)

Looks great Ducks!! I'm sure you'll have a ton of fun on it.
Talk about takin' up beer drinkin'! I was mowing the yard the other day with a six pack, while listening to the ball game, and enjoying the cool a/c. I might as well have been in my recliner! haha
Thanks for the pic's. Real fancy way of detailing each one also! I like that.
Congrats on your tractor!

Thanks Houndstooth! I will definitely enjoy it. Cab! AC! Ballgame! 6-pack! Don't tell me you've got a wine cellar on that thing also! I think back to my grandfather plowing the fields with a mule and the upgrade was a horse!We've gotten spoiled!

I wish it would stop raining so I can get out and do some shredding. Last summer you didn't have to mow down here because the grass was all dead and what was left the grasshoppers ate to the ground. Boy was it dry. All our tanks went dry. This year all tanks are running over into the creeks and it's a sloppy mess. Things are growing that I've never seen before! I'll take the rain any day but did it have to come when I got my first tractor!

Nice job, Ducks! I'm not sure I would not skin my shins on the ammo box in front of the seat, but I've set a lot of things in the same position on my tractor when going from place-to-place. I like your other tool boxes and drink holders...and your unobstructed view.:)

Thanks jinman. I actually thought about mounting an .30 cal ammo box there, (it's much narrower), but it only holds 1 chain, so I went with the .50 cal. No problem so far with the shins on the tractor, but I still tend to find furniture in the dark with them!

As far as the unobstructed view, amen to your recommendation!

Pete
