Handy Devices

Ken Mueller, Syracuse, Nebraska, uses an old lick tub to create a handy container that he mounts on the back of his tractor. He drilled two holes in the bottom of the tub, aligning them with the tractor's drawbar. He mounted the tub to the drawbar using bolts long enough for two washers (one for each side) and for a nut and clip pin (see detail). He says it works great for holding net wrap or twine -- and it's easy to remove when not needed.
