DTW Challenge

The intent of this project was to provide operator protection to an “Iron Buffalo” (2 wheeled tractor) multipurpose cultivation tool presently in use in Cambodia and allover South East Asia.  DTW designed and manufactured a number of protection units for attachment to tractors in order to insure the safety of tractor operators as they work their way through framing fields.
