hey thats really cool plow, you should go around to the neighbors early and ask for money to plow their driveway or sidewalk. it looks great. also how did you hook up the plow to the chair like by the footrest or where? and can you take it off and on?

[n1ck3br0wn]

@Colombiandaniel Thank you, no never attach anything to your footrests, they'll bust right off. Attach it to a solid part of the frame and yes make it removable with pins or anything you can come up with.

Awesome idea man. I have leg mobility issues as well, and was wondering if you could tell me which model power chair that you have?? Again SWEET idea!

[n1ck3br0wn]

@BWman2013 thanks, it's a invacare extara, old model not made anymore.

[imbonnie]

That's pretty cool. I like your plastic covering.

Neat man!

dude that is so cool i want 2 make a plow wit my little bros old wheel char o ps i give u all the credit in the world

[n1ck3br0wn]

thank you, It's really easy to make one if you or somebody you know knows a thing or two about working with medal. I agree use a old wheelchair because there is a possibility of something going wrong. let me know if you have any questions and if you don't mind me asking how old is your brother and what disability does he have?

[BigHeadFarm]

that is AWSOME! Your situation is unfortunate, but the fact that you are making the best of it (in a really cool way) is absolutely AWSOME! Cheers!

[n1ck3br0wn]

Thank you, I love what I do.

[n1ck3br0wn]

Thank you.

[davenport1978]

so u built it im looking to do the same thing where did u get the plow from?

[n1ck3br0wn]

Custom made from scrap iron laying around our shop. It's really quite easy to make.

that is great you have been plowing snow with your wheelchair

my landlord without a disability can't plow snow but you can plow snow very well

[n1ck3br0wn]

if you or your landlord knows someone that does medal work it's fairly easy to build one. I will just let you know that there is a possibility of burning out you wheelchair motors, i have never had that happen to me but apparently a guy put a snow plow on like mine and went out and somehow burnt his motors out by getting moister inside his motors or something and burnt it out but I have been plowing for 5 years, this will be my 6th years with no problems at all.

It looks  like it works great... i need one for my old power chair.

[RoseRodent]

I WANT ONE!!!

[n1ck3br0wn]

Ya, it works very well.

[kepfingered]

[n1ck3br0wn]

Thank you

[eazyc0923]

[n1ck3br0wn]
