In Australia the ROPS situation is very similar to the UK, although they have only been compulsory here for about 20 years. They must have an ID plate and conform to an Australian Standard. Along with PTO covers they are probably the most important tractor saftey inovations. Take heed of JDknut's comments. I would not recommend that anyone build a ROPS without proper design and testing. Even the angle of the ROPS relative to the tractor is critical, and will be different for various tractors. For a little extra money, you can buy a ROPS that you know will do the job. Do it yourself and you'll never be 100% certain.
