Homemade Loader-Mounted All-Purpose Carrier
Pallet-sized box with wood dividers to carry different tools built onto a wooden pallet that's being carried by a skid loader pallet forks.

With his Homemade Loader-Mounted All-Purpose Carrier, Mack Myers (Kirbyville, TX) can haul everything he needs to cut wood. He made it by nailing 2 x 8 boards onto a wooden pallet, into which he slips his skid loader's pallet forks. The carrier's dividers keep everything neatly in place-oil and gas containers, chainsaws, hand tools. He uses a flat 2 x 12 board on top for servicing the saws. Palletized materials and tools are easily carried with loader forks, relieving back strain and accommodating mobility impairments while moving loads.
