Snow痴 coming

Great explanatory pictures. All the thought you must have put into this seems to be paying off big time. Very impressive.

I'll second that!:thumbsup:

I'll give it a 3rd thumbs up. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Very impressive indeed. I toyed with doing the same thing last year and ended up getting an inverted snowblower instead. I kept the old rear facing blower too, since there are some things that need to have the blower enter the snow before the tractor. Maybe some day I will get enough motivation to do the same thing. Hope you don't mind if I copy your design. I like it.

Couldn't readily get into my truck yesterday morning. FROST on the pumpkin.

Everyones pressure washers and hoses SAFE?

First snow of the season in NW Montana. Gotta use front bucket/rear blade carefully until ground is frozen, THEN the MK Martin inverted blower will be the weapon of choice.

Old man winter stop by this morning to say hi here.

Yep, the hare pups frolicked in the NH North Country 2day.

We got a couple of inches of snow yesterday, but it was so warm, it was gone by the time I got home last night.

If you put Edge Tamers on your bucket's cutting edge, you won't have as much problem with pushing snow over soft ground. Won't help with tires rutting things up, but that's another subject.

Love Flathead lake, is that museum still there down at the south west side? Beautiful area in general :thumbsup:

Just getting little teasers of snow. Making progress, finalizing the details and bits to complete this project. Had to weld the top brace from the top link mount to the chain case while in position on the tractor. Did a lot of searching the net for hazards to the ECU while welding. Good ground, did not disconnect anything, welded away. Relief came when the tractor started after the weld. Will grab a couple of pics tomorrow. Had a warpage issue with the blower mounts after I put a couple of gussets in. Had to pull with a jack-all, cut a gusset and weld the expanded cut.

Can't wait to see the progress and then the blower in use.
