:cool2:Thanks !!!
Todays pics show my latest little project. I call it the ( TARP FLIPPER ) . I have 15 mini machines, two cars and a pickup . So this little loader has to sit outside all year round. But I keep it covered with a tarp. As i get older it is harder to climb up and drag the tarp over the cab after each snowplowing. Now in less than one minute I can pull either side of the bar and raise the 14 x 16 tarp up and over covering almost the whole machine from the weather. Reverse the process flipping it back is just as easy and two quick release pins detach the frame from the brackets and off I go to plow. It does not look fancy but it works AWESOME !!!:cool2:

Man, I like that! New project near the top of my list before the weather gets too bad. Did you use PVC pipe for the flipper?

I used 2" thinwall conduit . It sure works slick !!!
Todays pics show the new rear hitch parts cut out, welded and attached. Also the right side lower storage box project. And three overhead rear lights . I am now working on the left side storage box that will hold the Cub Cadet fuel tank. I will add a electric fuel pump but still keep the smaller gravity fed fuel tank for backup.

I want to make the tarp flipper in the spring for our motorhome too. Except it will be designed to flip from each end and be joined in the middle . It should work pretty slick too.
I got the gator all done and now working on a quick detach cab rear and top section. This will make it more fun to plow snow in the cold north wind and blowing snow. The rear section and top section comes off easy in less than 15 minutes and the tractor returns to the original cute look for tractor shows. Today I received notice I made it in ( The Best of Farm Show ) with this tractor too . So that is very cool.
