Posthole Digger PHD stand

[bjcsc]

Easy to make. I made mine from 2 pieces of flatbar, some water pipe, some round stock, and 2 muffler clamps. I can back right into it - no wrestling...the rear stand, using the same bolt holes as the guard, just rotates forward out of the way, the two front pieces flip and get pinned back in upside down. It all goes with you.

This is what I use. Very simple, easy to hook up by yourself. Some 4x4s and 2 Simpson brackets. Top cross piece lifts out after your all hooked up. PHD doesn't fight you, or twist on you. Takes only a few minutes to have installed. Total cost if you bought new wood & brackets, less than $20. Everybody comes up with a system that works good for them, this is just one more way to deal with storing your PHD.

Very nice Brian, I may use this one!
Thanks,

Thanks for the photos everyone. You know what they say a picture is worth a million words.

Brian Probably a stupid question but I can't quite understand how you get the PHD off the stand. The crossbar looks fixed so the PTO and the hitch hookup have the crossmember going through?

Garth, the top cross 4x4 is only setting there and is easily removed after the PHD is hooked up and lifted with the hitch. The Simpson brackets are just a saddle to hold the cross 4x4. Does this make sense? Any other questions, please ask.

See if I can post this evening............

Mine, holds in the position it sits on the tractor in, makes it easier (still wrestle at times) to get it on and off.
