"It makes a handy loose hay basket and can haul a surprisingly large load," says Gabriel Davidson, who turned his 5-ft. wide brush mower into a loose hay carrier.
  He simply laid a 6-ft. wide, curved panel section off a wire corn crib on top of the mower and tied it down to the mower's frame. He uses his Ford 860 tractor to pull the mower.
  "I came up with the idea last summer when a hailstorm left our yard with a blanket of leaves and twigs to clean up. I hate to take the mower off, so I decided to just mount the wire panel on top of it," says Davidson. "I've also used it to clean up some loose hay in the field and to pick up roadside hay.
  "I'm surprised at how much it can haul û the front end of the tractor actually pops up when the carrier is overloaded."
