Does the 22 degree angle work well to move material to the center of road? What do you estimate yours weighs?

It moves material,,, some,, not like a grader blade.
I think my blades are higher than most of the landplanes that I have seen.
My blades are reversible blades off of a 14' wide CATERPILLAR motor grader,, so, I would think they would be a little bigger.

It does dig the road edge amazingly well when weighted on the digging side (2-300 pounds)

I would guess 1200 pounds as the weight,,
When I have the loader off the tractor, my tractor weighs about 8,000 pounds.
If I lift it, the front end of the tractor gets so light,, the steering depends on me using the brakes.

CADPlans, did you ever add the second set of blades?

Nice build detail, by the way!

The second blade was not added,, I was afraid that I would loose the cutting action that the LP now has.
I figured I would have to add 600-800 pounds of weight to get the LP cutting again after the second blade were added.
