mickeyw Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Fantastic, and I am sure great fun. Sadly we get so little snow in the south-east, otherwise I'd have made a plough too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaghost Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 First year we moved to this house we had 9" of snow fall overnight so I knocked this plough up to assist with the intention of making it better ( as it's quite rough ) , I raise and lower it with the winch on a snatch block as without it wants to go to quickly and slams to the ground but typically just to spite me, barring the beast from the east the snow has stayed away, so this is the third time in 9 years I've had a chance to play and obviously I've ploughed all my neighbours drives to prolong the fun regards Stephen 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't possibly take any pictures " of that rig " especially in daylight, it would destroy any reputation I've built up for fabrication lol regards Stephen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoSS Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Slight drift, but i've always fancied a lightweight, are they still findable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaghost Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 Yes still findable but some are not particularly cheap these days regards Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to satisfy ThreePointFive and risk being ostracized, ridiculed, reported to the society for protection to fabrication and banned from the forum I have consented to some pictures " of that rig " Warning some scenes may cause fabrication anger Blade also angles Winch lifts blade high enough to pile ploughed snow higher Second round clearing last nights snowfall another 4" regards Stephen 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreePointFive Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I don't want to brag but I've watched all episodes of Project Binky (twice) so I'm kind of a fabrication expert now, and I think that looks quite good! It clearly does the job, to leave the ground so clear. It was how it would attach to the car that was the biggest mystery, now answered! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbekko Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Looks perfectly fine to me. Maybe not the prettiest, but functional and strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderzander Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 it seems that he knows that we know, but I’m not sure that he knows that we know that he knows that we know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
