Where did you get that? I really like the look of that.Added a chainsaw carrier to my rear basket. Handy to be able to be carry a small saw when I go down to the woods.
Shop around for best price, but they are not expensive.Where did you get that? I really like the look of that.
I love these ^^ , you can easily weld them to all kinds of things! (or attach with hardware) they are simple to modify and cheap.Shop around for best price, but they are not expensive.
Bannon Chainsaw Holder
Item# 55816
I was pleasantly surprised at the quality for the price.I love these ^^ , you can easily weld them to all kinds of things! (or attach with hardware) they are simple to modify and cheap.
I have that cross tube in the loader itself, but another exact same cross tube is part of my lower loader mount.^^^^^
That's OK, I store a couple of lengths of chain in the cross-tube (brace) of my front loader. It's a convenient place to store chain without having to come up with an exterior location to carry them. On a compact tractor there is just so much 'real estate' to work with. So mounting a 'chain bucket' doesn't make sense.
Those two lengths of chain pretty much fill the tube. The only way to get them packed back IN the tube is with the chain hook tool.
Reaching in and pulling the chain OUT is no problem. Once it starts....gravity takes over. But putting it all back IN is like trying to put toothpaste back in the tube without the help of the chain hook to stuff all that chain back in place.
Naturally, I have to carry the chain hook with me.....so I just found a place to mount it out of the way.

Dang, that's a lot of sap, how many trees are you tapping? We only did eight (8) trees this year, but we've collected about 50 gallons total, we walk it as our forest is too thick to drive even my little lawn tractor through (also far too wet/muddy to try that). Also, do you use propane or wood to boil? We're new to it (year 2) and using propane seems super wasteful and I'm constantly worrying about the flames blowing out.Broke a hundred hours collecting sap this morning. The L4701 is definitely more capable and less scary driving through deep snow over uneven surfaces with some weight on the forks (than my B2301). Hopefully the sap keeps until I’m able to boil it.

I’m only doing 13 trees this year. And I didn’t even get a chance to collect any of the runs before this week.Dang, that's a lot of sap, how many trees are you tapping?

Nice! I thought you'd bought an excavator at first!Good enough for government work.
If I did, it wouldn’t be this piece! I can’t complain though, she does good work, and saves my back.Nice! I thought you'd bought an excavator at first!
Wow, nice!I was amazed to find that I gained an entire 12" of overall width which dramatically improves the 'seat of the pants' feel for stability.
