Back blade

Tor Arne · Oct 27, 2013

The other day the old back blade my father made sometime in the 60ths gave up. this has been repaired more times than I can remember, so I decided it's time to upgrade it so it holds. It will get hydraulic swing of the blade and the ability to tilt it horizontal. As always my inspector is never far away. She is now 1.5 years and never far away. Last Image is the square tube I want to use for the new boom, it is 150x150x10mm

With a frame made of that tube, you dont need the stone on the back as ballast anymore

Looks indeed like its well used over the years

Can't wait to see the finished "new and improved" product.

Drilled holes for the the boom and made the sleeves to be welded in. Has also made most of the parts to tilt and turn on the blade, need
to be reinforced but you see the idea

Looking good Tor!
I brought home some annular cutters from work and bought a drill press adapter for them to drill all of my holes on my new blade project. This has saved me hours of time drilling.
