Looking at building my own weight box looking for some ideas images or drawing with some dimensions would be great or if you have a price on a factory kubota one that would be better and save my time would be awesome

Good Evenin Lockman,
Try using the search feature, there have been a bunch of nice weight box ideas on TBN. Myself, I just used a steel drum, cut a couple of holes through it about a third of the way down the barrel, an got a steel rod that runs through the barrel, filled it with rocks and concrete. Its not really pretty but it does the job of adding weight when using the loader and durring the winter months...:)

What tractor are you wanting to put it on? Many of the ideas that you will find can easily be modified to the weight desired. I am working on a similar project myself.
