Nice video. I stumbled on to it because I am planning on putting ROPS or some other framework on my old JD 420 garden tractor which never had one. The main purpose is for shade. I built a motorcycle 54 years ago out of an old heavy 1 speed bike when I was 16 years old using an old weedburner engine that was in the scrap pile. I modified the engine to run horizontal from vertical shaft because that's what I needed for the bike. I welded the engine onto the bike frame after removing the gears and pedals which included the braking. I wore out the soles of my workboots in a week. It went about 20 mph and we had a blast. It is more rewarding in my opinion to create something from your mind than to buy something. My girlfriend was there and we roasted marshmallows with the torch. She is now my wife of 46 years.

Hey Courtney, your brother is a natural👍 I watch your videos quite a bit and you do very well too. Chris sounded like he has been doing video narration forever. His explanation as the different things came up was superb, very easy to understand snd listen too. Great job Chris, hope to hear you more👍

[@GoodWorksTractors]

What a nice message. Appreciate your viewership, and you taking the time to write some kind words. He'll see these comments. See you down the road!

Awesome, I love seeing the DIY stuff and not just factory attachments that cost $$$$ thanks for sharing / passing it along. :-)

[@keithnavarro2930]

Some of these are really impressive. I tip my hat to these folks. Gave me some ideas. Thanks. I need to work on a holder for my Stanley vacuum bottle or else drink less coffee. I'll go for the holder.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, I like it!

[@cwolf8841]

Developing solutions is a slow process. It takes several generations of prototypes to work out the interfaces & dimensions. Businesses then have to work out packaging, shipping, etc. I'm in awe of folks like Heavy Hitch, Artillian, Boltonhooks, BigToolRack, etc. who turn ideas into businesses.

George's wall hanger for the mower deck would also make blade sharpening a snap. Cool idea, George!

Thanks for the video. That was a great group of very clever Solutions. Hope you can do a version 2.

Love the video! The last one by George for laying wire was a marvel! I'll have to send in some of my mods for your next installment (my tractor is the wrong color though..)

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Ha. No wrong color! Just hope you have a tractor that get your jobs done and maybe even one you love. And George is quite the fabricator!

Fantastic video! I love seeing ideas like this. I did some LED lighting on my JD850 tractor, my JD310D backhoe and also my zero turn mower. George seems like the kind of guy you hand over some rope, duct tape, and a pair of vise grips and he suddenly creates nuclear fusion.

[@EOTG_AK]

Pretty neat idea for extending the vacuum tube for manually vacuuming stuff up. Some blast gates on it would be neat to be able to switch back and forth between deck and hand held vac on the fly.

Chris, nice job on this video. I love seeing these mods. I totally forgot I sent in the pictures over the summer. (I’m Shawn from Vt). Definitely taking notes for new ideas for the next build or mod. May be in the market for a grapple, I’ll keep you posted. I’m deployed in Africa till next year so I’m unfortunately thousands of miles from my garage.

This was awesome Chris! I love seeing ideas come to fruition! I told Courtney that I love the design of the stump bucket, as I am a designer in automotive industry. I am brand new to the tractor world myself just recently. Seeing this was very inspiring! I don't know much about hydraulics and electronic switches and so forth, but this really makes me think there's a whole new world to discover for my design mind to dig into!!!! Thanks Chris and to all who submitted their creations! Especially loved the storage rack idea,,, I guess cause I have a lot of implements for my new tractor I have to figure out how I am going to address storage !!!! Have a great day all!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ~Drew :^ )

I liked the diff peddle and others. I mow a wooded acre with my X738. There are always sticks to pick up. I plug in a luggage rack and sit a 4 foot long tote on it for sticks. From the seat I use a pick up tool and drop the sticks into the tote.

I was tired of big clots in my garden all the time so I fabricated a set of spike harrow with a springtine Harrow behind it I should send you pictures of that working on my subcompact tractor it works better than a set of discharrows

Use a quick hitch as a log skidder. Back over your log drop the quick hitch over it hook up the log then lift it just off the ground and skid away.

[@bishopcorva]

That leaf hauler on pallet forks gets me thinking of how to load it easier. Basically a similar set up for a rear mounted bagging system, except the extra blower/pick up motor is mounted to the box and powered either hydraulically or by a small gas engine to pull the clippings from an lower deck under the tractor to the forward box that's on a front loader arm. The front loader being able to lift higher to pour the box contents into the box of a truck or into a larger trailer.

[@jamesmbutler]

That was really good - I enjoyed that!! Some seriously good ideas there.

[@gotchagoing8843]

At over $350.00 bux plus shipping for YOUR cat 1 quick hitch, my $99.00 quick hitch from harbor freight and two sets of bushings is just as strong, and a helluva lot cheaper. I've been running this setup for almost 3 years now with out a single problem. And one of my attachments is a 48.3 inch reverse rotation rototiller that is VERY well built and heavy.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

If memory serves, it's roughly 15 pounds lighter than the Speeco and nearly every day I have someone buy a Speeco from me because their cheaper Harbor Freight hitch either doesn't fit or has had another issue. So, I'm glad to hear it's working well for you, however it appears they have some real quality control issues going on.

[@supporterofeverythingyouli6255]

If you're using a quick hitch on a rototiller I would suggest you try it without. Quick hitches are pointless on small Tractors.

[@hhenry007]

@@supporterofeverythingyouli6255 Very much true.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Pretty sure you're not correctly assessing the situation. The folks that are buying quick hitches already tried hooking up without. They want a better solution. Nevermind, it all makes sense now that I re-read your user name 😂👌
