Inspired by lots of ideas here, I finally got around to building a carry all box. Sorry--no pics yet, but they're coming, I promise. But it's similar to this one: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showpost.php?p=249508&postcount=8


Last major issue is that I need to find a way to attached my straight shaft Stihl string trimmer to it, either on the side, or transverse, across the top. Biggest concern is that I not crush, bend, or otherwise mutilate the trimmer when raising/lowering the box or maneuvering in tight quarters.

Most of the racks Google shows me are for landscaper trailers, or to hang vertically in a garage. Appropriate hooks with a bungee cord or two can certainly get me what I need. But I'm hoping someone has blazed this path before me and come up with an elegant solution.

Thanks!

Look up ATV GUN RACKS. I have used them on my 4wheeler for my straight shaft Husqvarna weed wacker for years. You could mount them vertical or horizontal.
