The ultimate snow weapon! ME!

Love those hats. The wife just ordered a blue one, dog ate her other one.

Here is my highspeed snow weapon on a 12hp Kubota.

After watching that video I had a couple of questions. Nice work by the way. Is it rocks that I hear pinging off into the woods there when you are doing that longer run? Do you have a shear bolt on there in case you pick up a large rock? And I was curious if you felt like the tractor could be a little tippy bouncing along like that with the bucket up high? Just me being a Curious George.

I love it. I can put my ear bud headphones under it, stay toasty warm. My ears will almost get too hot if I am really active.

To me, the sign of a good hat is how much snow is on it when you come in. That means you are keeping the heat in and not melting it off. This one is always covered.

In CT, the weather forecasters were finally right. I got 20"-24" ave. at my house.
It was deep enough that I got my truck stuck pulling out of my garage, so I could get the tractor/plow out to the driveway.

I posted some pictures, but forgot how to resize them. All in all, a good day as nothing broke on the multi-time repaired, found in the dump, snow plow. I seem to have finally engineered it right. I welded a mount to attach my landscape rake wheels to the plow frame, to minimize the plow trip on my uneven gravel driveway. After experimenting, I had the tires foam filled to support the weight. The wheels allow for faster plow speed by holding the proper loader curl angle, while floating the blade.

Funny you should mention that, some don't realize that fact. If it is snowing and there is no snow on our horses backs we put them in the barn, an excellent sign they are losing body heat.

We only got 8" to 10". Plowed the road yesterday with the one ton, then back draged what we got last nite to start building my smooth snow road again after it got ruined by the rain new years. This after noon I pulled the snoww off my skid trail so it will stay froze.

Thought I would add to the snow weapon pictures as we were out cleaning up some drifts and such. Only two pictures, a 2000 F150 with a 7.5' Boss Power-V plow, and our JD 1435 front mount mower with the broom attached. It leaves the cleanest driveway around and can move a surprising amount of snow.
