Hmm, I am interested to see how this turns out.

 

BTW I put the deck back on mine 2 nights ago. Was very hard for it being the first time but I think I learned some tips for next time. I mowed last night and it went well. Didn't take very long and I was able to mow a lot.

Me to. Trying to get the boys out of the yard right now. Figure 8 pallets 50 lbs apiece. 1.5 square of shingles. 4 pieces metal roofing. I am thinking 600 lbs on the plus side. Go pro will be rolling.

The forks will limit lifting ability because of the weight of the forks themselves and it pushes the weight of the load way forward. If it won't budge you can always take the forks off and try to strap the coop to the loader bucket.
