Grader Blade project

Recommended Posts

wheelly

Started this project monday to grade the lane this summer. It was a snow blade that the mounting was all twisted up so i decided to make something useful out of it instead of trying to sell the blade for next to nothing. Should have the steel i need tomorrow to finish it. Maybe by this weekend it will be ready for paint. And it will be made to swivel to 360 degrees.

Looks like a pretty nice project and very nicely fabbed! I do have one suggestion and that is weight! On a rear grader you can never have to much! Keep up the good work!
