2x Snowplow

[psk125]

The snow here is so wet it jams the TG2746 after about 25 seconds, and takes ten minutes to clear out. So I looked for a snowplow instead. The closest snowplow compatible with my TG1860 tractor (a TG2754) was more than 200 miles away and included hydraulics- which the TG1860 does not have. I decided to use 2x12's, 2x4's, and a fence post that I had on hand to build my own 60" plow instead. A drill press would have made it easier, but my Black & Decker hand-held seems to have managed:

Kinda hillbilly But I don't hate it..... seems to work.

good forearm/bicep workout lifting the blade....

The 3:1 tackle on the blade is easier to handle than the lifting lever for the mower deck. Of course the deck probably weighs three times what the plow does. Now watch it not snow again until next year.

Beware of termites in the off season!

The Flintstones used plows that looked just like that . Without angle wouldn't it just be a snow pusher .

As long as it does the job, go for it. Great job thinking outside the box. Craigslist is a great place to find used attachments. Sometimes you find a real good deal.
