mickeyw 186 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 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 post Share on other sites

Stellaghost 802 Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 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 post Share on other sites

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 post Share on other sites

Popular Post Badger110 331 Posted February 10 Popular Post Share Posted February 10 You’re an inspiration to us all Stephen, after a snowfall last night I figured it was time to whip up something to get me out of the drive! it’s not on par with yours of course, but I can send you the blueprints if you want? 1 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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 post Share on other sites
ThreePointFive 417 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 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 post Share on other sites
elbekko 461 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Looks perfectly fine to me. Maybe not the prettiest, but functional and strong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Badger110 331 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 You should know that we know that you know what you're doing and even if it's not the prettiest, we all know it'll do the job 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
