                      |  Hey guys. We all know about factory supplied attachments and factoy approved aftermarket attachments for our tractors. How about some pics of homemade stuff you have. I'll start it off with pics of my roller,sprayer and rider cart for the wife at shows. B10Dave

                      |   Byron. I used an old hot water tank. Took about 12 inches out of length,reversed lower end plate so both ends would be convex and welded axle through the middle. Made up the hitch assy. and used pillow block bearings with grease fittings.  Weighs about 650 LBS full of water.  B10Dave |

                      | I like homemade attachments even if they are not stylish...If they work,  I like.  This is a nice little hiller that came with my B112, it beats a hoe and rake but I would like to have larger sweeps to make taller rows.

                      | Hey, Snohiker Rob; 
 Whatcha got for a lift on the front bucket?
 And what kind of metal is the bucket made of?  Is it really light?  Hard to tell from pix.

 Nice looking little sprayer there, Dave.  Do you still get to use it much with the pesticide ban?
