View from the other side. The parking stand is temporary - I will get another piece of square tubing that fits inside the one I stuck on the side of the main beam. For now this round rod works OK.

Here is a top view in an angled position. A 14" stroke cylinder will give me an angle a little less than this, I think. I don't need much angle anyway - just enough to spill snow off to the side.

DONE! All prettied up and hanging from the tractor. I decided to paint the blade with rubberized rock guard/truck bed coat instead of ordinary paint. This stuff is pretty tough and should last longer than ordinary paint. Besides, I like the black against green contrast.

Brad....
"Fine Job" Bud, this shows the true wealth of experience & know-how of the members here at TBN. You, my man are a "craftsman", like I said before, Good Job. On my list for winter projects inside out of the cold, is a landscape rake; I hope you don't mind me borrowing some of your ideas ??

Nice job. Looks like you could make a rake attachment for it also, you would just have to unbolt your 4 bolts etc .
