saw scabbard

[Scott G]

So going back to boxes vs scabbards. Arches, like the one I recently picked up (Jim Brown’s), aren’t really set up to take a box. Hanging stuff off the front guard, which I like, is the norm. That said, the way Jim configured it, to hang the saw off a hook and have the bar stick down through the deck, I’m not to high on. I was thinking of how I could still use a scabbard which protects the saw, is fairly low so it’s easily accesible from the ground, and fits within the profile of the arch so that when it rolls, the saw’s chances of living are much greater. Here is what I’m thinking would work well. I’d like input from those of you who have been running arches for a while as I have not given the terrain I normally work on.

I used the peavey to prop the saw up into place. It would be very easy to bolt or clamp the scabbard, much like the one on my truck, to the main upright. Plenty of clearance off the wheel and the saw is tucked fairly tight within the profile of the arch. Please let me know what you folks think…
