I took and old Danuser Blade, Says it was made in Fulton Mo. I welded !/4" plate to the sides, cut rectangular holes in a 4" square tube and welded it to the side plates. I purchased the scarifying blades from TSC. I turned down some 3/4" steel to 5/8" and drilled the pin holes in the ends for the clips. Added some holders for the pins to slip into and reinforced the top and bottom where the blades are. I made a 2" receiver with ball and welded it on for towing.
Painted it up for the good ol US of A and here it is ready to dig.

I think that is the first box blade I have seen that pivots like a rear blade. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Nice paint too... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Almost too pretty to want to use.

Great job!

Do you keep your digicam in the Pelican case on the bench to protect it while in the shop? The blade looks good! I wonder why no box blades come with tilt built in?

Nice looking box blade. If we were to hook that one up would we have to salute it before we could use it? /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif Almost too handsome to drag in the dirt.

Well done. Good lookin' blade. It does, however, appear that the teeth on the scarifiers are upside down.....BobG in VA
