scrapyard box blade...first fabrication project

   / scrapyard box blade...first fabrication project #41  
Hi!

I'm going to build my own Box blade and just start to make up some draws and study a lot of pictures and read a bit here...

Back home in Germany i've got a 19hp Kubota B1500. I thought to make a 1200mm (4ft) wide box blade with hydraulic shanks and a hydraulic tilt. Not to sure yet, how to design the hydraulic tilt, but it won't be very hard. Unfortunately, now one in Germany has got a box blade and you can't get parts for it either. Just a few questions:

-are these shanks strong enough? https://www.industriehof.com/frm_middle.php?page=1&lang=en&grp=5&grpid=68&ktg1=139&ktg2=627 the one with the 3 holes in it
- I'd like to curve the rear wall to get the dirt "rolling", wich radius would be good if the side plates are about 300mm (1ft) high?

Cheers
Rushy
