*** PLEASE READ*** I made my own "Snow-blade just to see if I could, if it would work, and just for the fun of it. Since I never had a lawn tractor when I lived in Southern California, I like to ride it, you know! Come on...I'll be 63 in a few weeks. Humor me. Ha ha.
We get lots of snow here, and running the snow blower is a lot of work, but necessary in really deep spots. But for much of the driveway and sidewalks I can now run my Sears Craftsman YS 4500 lawn tractor. It gets a good cleaning and I get fresh air while having some fun.
I could make it out all of metal, but the blade really needed the heavy wood to be an effective enough weight. It was a fun project, which took me 2 days to complete from idea, start to finish.
I hope you warm climate types enjoyed the snow pictures and you snow birds, can relate.

looks great, a cutting edge might be a good idea. No need for a trip spring, It is a lawn tractor after all.

Really great job ! - I was Googling for homemade plows and came across your vidio. Love how long the video was, that it is in HD, and it was full of great info. It always amazes me what a creative mind can accomplish with handy around the house materials. I often wondered if I could build a plow like this for my lawn tractor, and now I have some guidance and hope ! Thanks for posting this ! - Frosty up in snowy cold Canada.

Normally I don't comment on videos like this, but I really like the way you put this together, held strong to your ideas, and just made a fun video to watch.
