Got this a few days ago, sure is easier than lifting a 5 gal fuel jug!

red one for gasoline. I’ve had this for a couple of years for my zero turn mower.

I was looking for a gas caddy and did not find any that were reasonable..I agree the 5 gal fuel cans are heavy so I adapted..You can buy a small fuel pump hose to transfer fuel, for less than 20 bucks..It is powered by a AA battery and works like a charm..I use it for refueling my Genny..

Cool. What's your procedure for getting it to/from fueling station?

Gas station less than 1/2 mile from my home, so I hook up my small (5x8) trailer, load and strap fuel caddy securely and go!

Used a 25 HP Mahindra some last year and was impressed with what 25 HP could do. bought a John Deere 3038 afterwards at Rebel Auction. no regrets.

Well since I no longer have a defibrillator/pacemaker implanted I can do some welding again. Pretty rusty at it after nearly twenty years, but I think I did OK.
Brush/debris forks for the FEL bucket.

I plan on adding some additional vertical bracing to attach to the top edge of the bucket along with a “headache” rack to hopefully keep anything from falling on the tractor hood.

Looks great. My dad was a welder by trade and I learned how to at an early age. I also learned how much better he was than me. His welds always looked mechanical.
