Well here is the finsihed product minus the paint.
Looks good! Was the top bar intended to be a "pull back bar" to pull snow away from close things such as a garage or did it just turn out that way? Either way it looks excellent!

No i just put it on for more support. The shop that bent the metal said it might have a bit of a twist and when i squared it and put that support in to help it.

Thanks now we just need the snow to use it on. Last year we had probly 3-4' of snow and this year were lucky if we got 2-3". O well i guess im ready for when it does come. And of course i was looking around last nite and found a truck blade for a reasonable price. Might buy it and build another one just for fun.

204saskman, all you have to do to change your angle is remake the bottom angle piece on the blade. I screwed up the angle on one of mine so I just welded a new bottom anlge on, this moved it out a couple inches so I could actually scoop with it.

I will post pictures in the morning. Got it all painted up last nite. Just want to take them in the day light and not in the dark. Ill have them up for tommorow nite. I painted it with tremclad rust paint, Its the same green as my montana surprisingly. It looks pretty good. I think ill use it for the winter and then im gonna put another coat or 2 of paint on it for next season.

Well here is some pictures. I used it for about 20 minutes today and i really like this thing. Sure makes pushing snow easier. Now we just need snow lol. I painted it green and its about as close as i could find to match my montana.
