JD 112 Brush Guard/Tote Build

I got some of the latches done today. Here's what I started with.

Made up the pins only to fine they are .380". had to OS the holes for those to fit. Figured out where the roll pins needed to go and made notches in the main frames for them.

Got them ready to weld up. Decided to use the same roll pins for handles, so a trip the Ace is needed!

I hope to get some welding done today as the temps will be dropping and I'll be fighting cabin fever for a couple days!
 
I got it all welded together! The lower bracket needed a slight amount of tweaking due to weld pull. But I ended up with a nice snug fit with it.

Put the tote in and all is good there.

Even got a coat of paint on the tote since the fire was going. Bracket will have to wait a few days!
