A bit of progress...
spent some time on the lathe to produce the barrels and bushes for the hinges
then spent most of today welding them in and tacking up the lid.
I need to do some blacksmithing to make the quick-attach hooks so I can hang it on the tractor, it's heavy and awkward to move around now. I have a negative clearance problem to resolve with the rams, probably going to have to take some material off the yokes on the rams but the thing is so damn awkward to handle with the lid wanting to fall either open or closed every time I move it!
