Snow blower storage question

Recommended Posts

bk-scouter

Seeing that we've had some decent weather in Grand Rapids, I'm starting to think about putting away the single stage for the season. I have thoughts of building a wooden dolley to set the 42" blower on and roll it under the bench. I've seen a couple pictures of them, but has any one ever built one before, and do you have any tips or ideas to consider?

I appreciate your wisdom on this :thumbs:

Northen tools has some nice moving dollys for around 30 bucks, I used to have a few of them and they work good for what you want to do..

I just move the wheels to the highest setting and she rolls around easily just lifting on the mounting frame.

If yours has skids instead of wheels use a couple pieces of scrap angle iron and two small cheap casters. Bolt the casters to the angle iron then bolt the angle iron to blower in place of the skids.

Anyways, keep the ideas coming guys. Pictures would be great too. :whistle:

Got an old creeper? They're a little wider, the little appliance dolly's I got one at Menards for like $20.00 bucks and carpeted too.

Yeah, I was there last Saturday too. I saw the dollies there for $30 each. They were right above the dolly wheels, which sells for around $8 a piece, plus using either 2x4's or steel angles to make my own. Can you say "no brainer"? <_<
