you guys and gals got any pics of some unique things that you have built or invented. The stranger the better :D
 
Sure. Let's start with this one that our old buddy Lyle made:

Oh no, too late for a pic.
I just traded off a pretty good one,
a log splitter, I think you all would have liked.
Wished I could have shared that one...
Already posted my mailbox awhile back, with the 4' exhaust stack runnin to a "JUNK MAIL" incinerator.

A question about the tong when unhooked. Does the support legs need to placed down to unhook?
 

Here is a self-leveling 3 point hoist I built:

And also a winch for my tractor hauling trailer. I made it out of used sprinkler parts and a starter motor. It is strong enough it snapped a 1/2 inch sprinkler tow cable one time:

It isn't visible in the picture, but there is a trailer jack on the tongue of the dolly, and that jack will support the entire gooseneck and dolly. No need to use the jack on the gooseneck.
 
Here are a few of mine......swath mover, combine header safety stop, dump weigher, Dad"s bale loader, etc.

Do you use the rubber tired field roller on pasture? If so how good a job does it do?

I have been playing around with that idea. Be intrested in a little more detail as how you made it.
 
Rustyfarmall, what kind of weight have you hauled on the gooseneck when attached to the cart? Does the cart want to slide on you side to side on slopes, hills, etc? How did you determine where to attach the ball on the cart? It looks like it is just in front of the axle. Thus, the cart will not tip backwards when you unhook from the tractor. Any chance you can post some close-up pictures of the cart? Pretty neat deal.....I can see lots of applications.

I've not hauled any kind of weight, unless you can count about 14 grandkids taking a spin around the backyard.

I built it so I could easily move the trailer when I am mowing grass, without having to get the truck out of the shed and hook up to the trailer.

There are more pictures here.

Now that I like! Except that I was thinking of using 4 wheels so I could haul it out to the field in the winter with the loader tractor,unhook,load it with round bales,then hook back on. That 2 wheel setup doesn't look like you could do that.
 
Not me - But this guy seems to like "inventen" stuff.
As for me, I just try to remember to tie my boots and zip my zipper
