Finally got time to get some bucket hooks welded on. Added some flat bar for support to strengthen the lip of the bucket.







No more wrapping the chain around and around when I do this (opening day doe with the old bow and arrow)



Then i got my welder buddy to help me fab up some brackets for mounting a toolbox. Welded them to the cross piece behind the seat and to the lower ROPS supports. Bolted the box on and filled it with tractor goodies!







Then I tried out the used chain on bucket forks I picked up so I could move a big $&@ hog trap around.





Worked like a charm. Now time to catch some of these 200 lb rats.



Love my Kubota!

Close up the brackets we used to support the toolbox. I need some heavier bolts but didn't have any.

Brackets are welded to the cross piece behind the seat and to the ROPS support. That's it. Bolted down in each corner but need some bigger bolts.

Yup, my good friend's daughter and son in law live there.
Nice buck. Hunting is not my thing, but eating it is :)
Good fishing up there too.
I live in a great rural community, just a stones throw from a big river. Deer pass through front yard from time to time.

Sounds like heaven. I'm stuck near Houston Texas for another 7 years then moving to a little 21 acre slice of heaven. :)
