tool box for b7100

[teach]

Does anyone have any pictures of a tool box mounted on their b7100? It has rounded fenders and side grab handles making it difficult at best to mount anything on the fenders as I have seen others do in their pictures of other tractors.
Thanks.

I am not sure,but on the left side ooohhh below the gas tank does you B7100 have tool box...for the little things.

Indeed you are correct Thomas, but I was hoping to install a box that holds a little more and that was easier to access. I want to be able to put a few hand tools in the box with a pair of gloves, spare pins, maybe even a short length of chain, etc. I looked at one today at Tractor Supply, it was 16" long, but just couple of inches too wide to attach to the back of the seat. I'm a little nervous about drilling into the ROPS and I don't have a welder (yet).

What...no welder as of yet,you need to put that item at the top of your list teach,and than the fun...opps...than the work will begin getting those projects done.

B7100 don't offer many spaces for nice tool box other than on ROPS,and when one attaches triangle safety sign there less room.

I attached a military ammo box to the side of my roll over bar where the triangle sign mounts using the same bolts. It does make a little vibration noise. I did this on a b7800 not much difference u can use the larage box or the small one, In fact you can mount one to each side with no problems.
Hope that helps.
Military retired so therefore thought of the ammo box.

akjohnston,
Hows about some pictures? Did you actually weld the ammo box to the ROPS or bolt it?
Thanks.

If you have a FEL, and it is like the one in this link, maybe you could do what this poster did. Pretty neat idea for chain storage, and a few tools, and gloves as you suggest.

BTDT,
I saw that post just last night, and in fact I went right outside to check my FEL. This is a great idea. Unfortunately, 3.5" piping would be too large for my B7100 and I'm not sure I could get a chain hook or gloves to fit. Perhaps some vice-grips or spare pins and alike would fit. I appreciate your idea though!

Two shorter storage drawers, one pulling from each side of the loader.

Instead of drilling or welding on the ROPS, how about making a bracket to fit around the ROPS, ecentially clamping to the ROPS.
