Snowplow Frame.....Super A

Hey Scott; Would you mind since you have the practice....... My cub needs some yellow and white. Looks like yours just rolled off the delivery truck. A little mud on the blade must be a result of the demo.

Mornin Joe,
Well, I never sprayed yellow and white but theres always a first time

Yep, the mud on the blade was me pushing a huge pile of leaves into the woods no snow in New England you know

The new arrangement allows me to get 10" of blade lift. Im happy with that and will post a pic later today

Glass beading and painting is all thats left, oh yeah, I need some snow also

Mornin Guys,
This arrangement seems to work out well, Im getting 10" of lift at the blade and that works for me I added a zerk at the pivot point and other than some finish welding, glass beading and paint, Im good to go.

I will post one more finished pic when its all painted !

Afternoon Guys,
Sorry about the long layover ! But its almost done now.

First pic all parts are finished welded and glass beaded.

Second pic, all parts are painted and Im waiting for them to dry and will reassemble tommorrow or saturday. One final shot of everything on the tractor.

Oh yeah, one minor problem, we have no snow, we havent gotten any snow and saturday they are talking about 55 to 60 degrees ! The grass is green and I should be working on a mower !

Afternoon Guys,
Seems pretty strange standing in the yard Jan 6th, 65 degees taking a picture of a snowplow Anyway the plow is ready for any snow we may get, might not happen till next year but we are ready

If by chance we do get any snow in the NE I will post an action shot

Im thinkin the NE is the new NC

Nice job Scotty. The thing I like best about your snowplow frame/snow plow is that it looks so original, as if it could have been an original implement. Very cool. Sorry you don't have any snow to try it out on.

Scooty you did a really nice job.

I'm wondering if and when we do get snow how it will perform with 2WD, please keep us posted.

Mornin Mike,
Yep, I will ! Sooner or later we will get something I have about 400/450 lbs on the drawbar plus 300 lbs of wheel weights and chains with ice cleats, Im thinkin it should work OK. But I will get an action shot as soon as possible

Im thinking this may be the only action shot in Ct this winter All the snow is up at my Vt home so this will have to do. The plow works great ! This was plowing 3 inches of sleet.
