Quick Attach Front Snow Blade

Hi all, just joined Nov 19 2019

I recently bought (June this year) my first Kubota a B2320, 2009 and in good shape IMO. It came with the standard fel, Sims cab, and a front mount snow blower.

A lot of people like the front mount snow blowers, so do I, but not at the "expense" of loosing my loader. So I decided I just wanted a Quick Attach front snow blade. Seen some online that clamp to the bottom of your bucket, but I thought I could make something at least as good, and take up less room in the bargain. If you've seen those that I'm talking about they are at least a couple of feet long (sticking out past the bucket)

So, mine clamps on the sides of the bucket, with what I'll call a finger bracket, and a turn buckle. It takes up no extra distance, and don't weigh much. Can install by myself in a minute, with zero tools.

The blade is 60" wide, 25" high, small bend every 5".

PS, Also made a rear fork, and bin, which I can haul about 1/8 cord of wood.
And the blower is for sale in Nova Scotia...lol

You can push just as much snow with the FEL bucket, as well as stack it. I can't see the advantage of the blade for a few inches of width gain.

12" is fully 25% wider, that alone is worth it to me, I think pushing snow should be with something wider than your wheel base, obviously I'm not alone on that. plus saves wearing the bottom of my bucket. Don't have to "dump". They are advantages to me.

If the snow gets deep enough I can quickly remove the blade to "stack it" (hope it don't)
