Sturdy Tractor-Mounted Chain Nox
Roger Gutschmidt's Deere 7530 MFWD tractor is fitted with a handy storage box he built and mounted to the front end.
  "The box is made from 8 by 8-in. sq. tubing with 3/8-in. sidewalls, and it's 21 in. long, which is the width of my tractor. I made it heavy duty so it won't get damaged or crushed if I accidentally bump it," he says. "I made the box to hold a log chain, hitch pins, and clevis. It's sturdy and easy to get to, and there really isn't a place to put a tool box anywhere else. I don't want this stuff inside the cab on the floor where it could get stepped on or bump the cab glass and break it."
  The box has a cover at each end for easy accessibility. The covers pivot on a bolt in one of the lower corners.
  "Before mounting the box to my tractor, I painted it to match, and I think it looks real good," Gutschmidt adds.
