I think they will. The Polaris Ranger bed is about the same size but is only rated for 500 lbs whereas this carryall is rated for 1,000 lbs. more firewood at one time!
Thanks for inspiring me to go out ant get my own frame (mine was from Tractor Supply, but essentially the same). Can't say enough how handy the carry all is. Love the channel. I have a number of acers and do a lot of wood cutting for my own use. I did sell wood in my younger days, but never at the level you have reached. Way to go.
Super nice job on your carryall project... I recently finished my carryall using the same frame by Tarter USA. My unit is 5 feet wide & I don't use a quick hitch, therefor NO holes are cut in the backboard. I used DIYCarryall Parts 1 & 2 by Martin off his channel as a reference, but modified his design to suit my needs. I used (1) less board on my swing out side walls as well. I did my hitch recvr plate a bit differently too. I used 1/4" steel plate X 3" wide X 32" long & recessed it into the tailboard using (8) 1/2" carriage bolts all the way across. Basically I should be able to pull the Empire State bldg off it's foundation with it! My headache rack is installed & is ready for my painted JD green " advanced steel " with the diamond pattern to install for hanging my chains & other stuff. I built (2) chainsaw holsters on the backside of the back wall with a pair of schedule 40 pipe on each side of them for my tools... I also have (4) H/D D-Rings, all painted & ready for the install, those will be mounted to my skid plates for throwing straps over tall loads... This project is 90% + done with $639.00 invested, my labor... Once again, job well done on your carryall build & thanks for sharing this... Bill on the Hill, Vermont... :~)
Great idea you should be able to haul all kinds of things with that. I’m always having to get the Ranger out along with the tractor makes for a lot of walking when working alone. Good job brother.
I think this carryall will be nice for loading dry firewood in and then with the quick hitch I can just drop it in the garage. I won’t have to stack it twice.
Nice, have a old carry all want to build like this. Will put casters on bottom so can be rolled in shed and stored. Good project and very useful for firewood
I never thought about the quick hitch hitting the back of the carry all. You fixed that problem easily. Let's see how much wood you can get in a trip now 👍🚜
Adam, nice job!. I’m glad you took this build on and appreciate the affordability and versatility. You will find it is so much easier to load wood at ground level (if not running it thru the splitter first) than having to pick up to waist height like the utv cargo box.The hitch you will find is a great addition not only to pull the wood splitter (and load carry all right from splitter discharge) but other things as well. Sorry I didn’t give you a heads up about the vertical boards spacing for attaching the 3 point. I attached 2x4s vertical before installing the face boards to negate the 3 notches. The quick hitch is great. Something to add would be pick up a set of 3 point quick hitch adapter bushings to tighten up the lower pins. It looks like you went with cat 2 pins? They make adapter bushings for both cat 1 and cat 2. Nice job and keep the vids coming!
That's a pretty strong build. You could probably add a small winch to the top which would make it simple to drag large rounds onto the carryall. I added a anderson plug to the rear of my tractor to help run a winch on a log trailer we built years ago. Works great. I've been thinking about building one of these, thanks for the nudge.
Good job Adam, you'll find many uses for it. You will carry a lot of wood now front and back. I built one a few years back and put some box section on the bottom and built half a carryall that slides into the main one. It allows you to carry more wood but I use it to you carry all the chainsaws, fuel, chains, log tongs etc while still carrying a full load of wood.
Love it ! That’s saving money for unneeded attachments . You could have really saved if ya got Davey to slice you up some locust. Good job , the scabbard will make the saw easily accessible. A little ingenuity goes a long way in this kind of work.and the hitch for hauling the splitter. Thanks for sharing !
Hey Adam, I see you called in “The Big Boss of The Boppers” to help today. Good to see you folks working together! That’s a great helper you two built, it’s handy for so many things including a sharpening station when cutting in the woods. You came up with a good design and remedied the hook up problem! Great job, thanks for sharing with us.
Looks good. I want to add one of these to my large tractor. You were moving quickly but it looked to me like you had the driver bit in the drill and the drill bit in the impact drill. It's best to have the drill bit in the drill and the driver in the impact. The impact drill will set screws much easier and easier on the tool.
Hometown Acres I may change mine, I went with straight sides when I built mine, lil wobbly. My 3 point hitch on my Massey 1045 doesn’t lift it high enough. Going to drill lower holes where they attach! Not a problem until I go uphill!
I built one of these last year. I put removable sides in on mine if I needed to remove them. I can cut in the woods and carry out 1/3 cord each trip. A lot more wood then the bucket can carry. Today I’m actually copying your Polaris dump side walls for my Polaris x2 atv. Smaller box but it can carry 400 pounds which should be 1/6 cord of wood for the places I can’t bring the tractor. I’m curious about the quick hitch for the 3 pt. I like the idea for $150 I should get one and try it out.
Yeah between the carryall on the back and loading 3 or 4 logs on the pallet forks on the front I think I should be able to get close to a full cord of wood on the tractor in 1 trip
Looking good, buddy. Your sides are nice (nicer than my reclaimed gate sides, LOL). I got that same porter cable drill. Good stuff. Curious why you only went 4ft wide? I went 5ft which about same width as the tractor, so it works well and got more capacity.
I wanted to keep it as nimble as possible back in the woods and for getting in and out of the garage. I plan on using it to load full of seasoned firewood and then just dropping it in the garage to burn in the woodstove. That way I don’t have to unstack it either
Haha I really liked the diagonal sides. I’ve seen other people do horizontal sides but if you do diagonal you can attach 1 end of the board to the bottom and the other to the back. It feels much sturdier. The horizontal sides only attach to the back of the carryall. Much bigger chance of your side walls springing out
Nice job there . Lots of places to hang chains and stuff like that . Someone mentioned casters . What a great idea . You can even hang stuff at the front (tractor side ) .Great choice of music . What's the name of the song please . Don't forget to film how you put the hitch on the back . Thanks .
Just stumbled across your channel and have binged all the episodes lol, really dig your channel. Was curious, what line of work are you and the wife in? Also, congrats on the kiddo!
Planing to buy one of these tractorboxes (heckcontainer called here in Germany). But yea, the Price is about 400-600€ for my size. One question to your quick adapter: How is it preventing something to jump of when you drive, lets say over a bump?
So there’s levers you pull to lock it in. I didn’t lock it in in the video but when I go take it out to work in a future video I will make sure to show how it secures to the tractor. Thanks for the great question
Adam, if you don’t mind me asking...What kind of video equipment are you using?...camera, editing app, accessories, time to make edit and post, etc. I’m getting really interested in doing a channel like yours. I have 1/2 of the equation...The mechanical. It’s in my blood, but the technical is not. Thanks
Hi Garny, I use a gopro hero 7 for all of my footage, the microphone on it is good not great. I have a DJI Mavic air I use whenever I want some drone footage. I simply use iMovie that you can get for free from the Apple App Store for all my editing. It has its limitations but it allows to me achieve 95% of what I want to do. As far as time involved editing. It depends. Some videos I can whip together in as little as an hour. Some take 2-4 hours depending on on how many different shots I have in the video. Picking out music etc. I hope you decide to start a channel. It takes a while in the beginning but It’s fun watching it grow. It is very rewarding work in my opinion
Hometown Acres thanks for the input. I couldn’t agree more with the reward be it either from video production and/or viewer comments. If I can produce a view half as good as yours I’ll be plenty happy
Great channel and video. Saw you on Hamiltonville chat and stopped by and joined. Check us out, we are trying to grow as well with similar content. Thanks.
Having trouble finding a similar attachment ( That the boards are attached too) Could use some additional information plz. Make, model, perhaps contact or web address info. Thanks
Thank for doing a great job explaining how you built your carry all. It helped me out immensely when making mine.
I just finished building this last night for my Kubota L2501. I used 2x12s and the Tractor supply frame. The functionality can’t be beat.
Adding to your equipment needs in an affordable manner. These accessories should greatly improve your efficiency. Good video
I think they will. The Polaris Ranger bed is about the same size but is only rated for 500 lbs whereas this carryall is rated for 1,000 lbs. more firewood at one time!
Quick hitch is awesome. I also built a carry all last year and it is great. Very affordable carry solution.

I have a number of acers and do a lot of wood cutting for my own use. I did sell wood in my younger days, but never at the level you have reached. Way to go.
Just followed your exact plan, and I’m loving the new carry all. Great video! Great design!
Heck yeah! Nice job, that will definitely be handy. Especially in the woods where your limited for room to maneuver a trailer 👍
Yeah it will probably only hold about half as much as a trailer but what you lose in capacity you gain with maneuverability.

@@HometownAcres
Sounds like a great plan to me, handle the firewood twice? LOL I think some of mine has been stacked more than twice.
Nice, have a old carry all want to build like this. Will put casters on bottom so can be rolled in shed and stored. Good project and very useful for firewood
That’s a great idea. Maybe down the road I’ll do something similar
J Burch, I did that to mine! Got mine from HF very cheap especially with coupon!
I never thought about the quick hitch hitting the back of the carry all. You fixed that problem easily. Let's see how much wood you can get in a trip now 👍🚜
Between that and the pallet forks I’m thinking quite a bit

Ahhh wish I would have thought of adding the 2x4 vertical spacers. That would have been a much simpler fix

I’d love to see a picture of what that looks like!
Adding angle iron to the inside would make it a lifetime build. Tons of extra strength for cheap.
I used this design, going to add some 90deg plates on the inside corners. A threshold on the front lip wouldn’t hurt either.

Great video 👍 and that's a very nice looking carry all implement. Thanks for sharing have a great week.
Thanks Buddy!

Yeah I had a impact drill bit that was the right size for the screws I was using and made due with what I had. Thanks for watching!
Going to be doing this build for my channel. Thanks
Looks like a great addition to the arsenal !
We’re definitely building a little business haha. Just keep trying to find ways to make it easier
My carryall is the most used implement that I have. Nice video.
I appreciate the cost analysis.
I really like sides Lots of extra strength and support!
Yes it’s much sturdier than other ones I’ve seen. The sides have solid points of contact at both ends
Hometown Acres I may change mine, I went with straight sides when I built mine, lil wobbly. My 3 point hitch on my Massey 1045 doesn’t lift it high enough. Going to drill lower holes where they attach! Not a problem until I go uphill!
Sweet setup man, I should try one of these for the Kubota! We have a ton of firewood out back to pick up and cut
Go get it man!
Great project, looks good

I believe it is called Land of my Fathers from the RUclips audio library
@@HometownAcres Thank you
How much does all that lumber weigh? only 1k capacity on that carry all
Adam, what Town is Family Farm and Home in that you bought the quick hitch in?
I have to build one need it for weight and moving wood and stuff as we call it lol 👍🏻 nice job tho
Let me know if you end up using this design or something else! Thanks for watching

Consider it a tool - not an accessory 🤨 Nothing like using a tool for the job at hand and not over complicating things
Hi
