Homemade Pickup Steps
 ✖  |
My home-built branch and brush trailer can be pulled by any ATV or garden tractor. It measures 40 by 60 in. and has four removable 4-ft. tall metal posts, one at each corner. I use the trailer when trimming tree branches. The trailer has a lot of capacity and actually works faster than putting the branches through a chipper. If I want I can use a pair of hooks to strap down the branches and brush. The design gives me full access to load and unload brush, because there's nothing in the way. The trailer has puncture-proof tires. It cost me about $350 to build.
These homemade pickup steps provide an easy way for me to get in and out of my pickup. The slip-resistant tread design works even if there's snow on the step. It cost me about $75 to make. (Dan Jacobson, Sr., 8913 Weaver Lake Drive, Pequot Lakes, Minn. 56472 ph 218 543-6623)
