Homemade Tractor Step Up
Homemade Tractor Step Up

So his wife could access the cab of his Ford Versatile tractor, Idaho farmer Seren Chandler used a bit of metal strap and piece of grating to make a step, which he bolted to the tractor's existing step frame so it hung well underneath the tractor's permanent first step. He then finger-tightened and double-nutted the bolt so that if the step hits an obstacle, it swings up and out of the way.
