Wooden Snow Plow II - with automatic lifter

This shows the larger 2x4 blade made with extra layers which also give it more weight. This helps it ride better over the little bumps of ice/snow than the original version. The automatic lifter gets rid of the little piles of snow that were left behind when I backed up.
It's been an AWESOME plow for my little driveway over the past year. No more shoveling for me!!

@snakesonaplane2 that would be sweet and a good idea im probably going to use a electric wench for mine tho

@the101tmaxx i was thinking of a plow like this for an old riding mower, i'd maybe use the hydraulics from a dump trailer to raise/lower it

@snakesonaplane2 i agree with you but if this is is a plow for a polaris ranger then it is perfect size :D im gona build 1 for my ranger lol

Very nice. If your not a design engineer you should be. I like your way of thinking.

i'm wondering what you use to lift it up when backing up, did you make or buy a hoist of some sort that you attached the plow to? i like that design, only i would make mine twice as tall and also add a board at the top perpendicular to catch the snow so it doesn't go over the top, and maybe make the plow extend just past the wheels that way the snow that comes off the sides won't get run over by the tires and compacted
