Carry all done. Wasn't so bad. This treated lumber is very wet and frozen and unbelievably heavy. I can't wait for it to dry out as it must weight north of 250lbs as it sits now.

This is different from last time. 2x4's mounted first to the frame.

Then the other boards screwed to the 2x4's. Went much faster and, while weaker, I think it is good enough.

Added some casters for rolling around the garage

Some tie down spots

And some tool/chain holders

And done. If I can find out where to put it I may try to attach a chainsaw mount somewhere on the carry all.

I am going to use it tonight to bring out the garage can to the main road. Since our snow will start melting this week I see the carry all living on the tractor.

Snow is melting, carry all came in handy last night. I really need to get some outside storage. This garage feels tiny with all of this stuff inside. Thinking of building a lean-to on the side of the garage. Not for the tractor... for kid stuff and other outdoor items.

Those are super cool and very nice... but you pay the price for them. I am ~$250 or less into mine and will beat the crap out of it. A Big Tool Rack is just too much at ~$1300 for the loaded model, which is in all of the pictures.
