Remember someone looking to add weight to back blade. Here is what I came up with. The weights are from a old weight machine that was being tossed out. Welded some pins with a treaded hole on end to flat stock, attached that to blade. Then added the weights, flat stock with bolts going to the pins to hold weights on. Total weight is 200 pounds, works very well on taking packed snow off driveway.

Looks good. And very useful for putting some weight to bear on a difficult project. I've done something similar with my boxblade. The weight helps it to dig instead of skid.

Good work.

Looks safer than having someone stand on it. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

I have 5 kids, all of whom would volunteer, just for the thrill.
