Nice job! How does it look on the green machine? :D

A friend of mine has some RR track I need to cut up and weld on, and maybe add a chain basket.

I had thought about repainting it green,:eek: but I may just keep it orange. Right now you can spot it a mile away. That's good, because I misplace things all the time :confused3:

Thank you, for the compliments.

Maybe I should paint on some flames.:laughing:

Flames would be cool! I don't really care what color the implements are as long as they are painted.

I use a 55 gallon barrel I made up years ago. 10 - 80 lb bags of ready mix and about 50 lbs of steel framing inside the barrel. I figure it's at least 850 lbs. It's narrow enough to go through the woods without getting hung up on trees.

Here's what I use,I just took an old bait barrel and beefed it up with some rolled 11Ga and a drawbar. I bolted two pieces of hotrolled to the drawbar for the top link, and simply filled it with sand. I figure 300 to 400 Lbs. It has helped greatly plowing snow.I only have three hrs into it and about $35 for parts.
