Howdy Everybody!

Okay, so we're rapidly approaching the time-of-year where four letter words beginning in S fall from the sky (and it's not because you're pulling a manure spreader).

Last year, I used a 3-point back-blade on my D17 Series 1. It worked, but not nearly as well as I'd hoped.

In previous years, and previous homes, I used a 7.5' Meyer snowblade well-secured to the front of a series of very-well-ballasted Jeeps. I still have the blade, but no longer the abuse-Jeeps.

I'm going to mount this Meyer (power angle and lift) on the D-17, but after examining the geometry, I've come to the conclusion that it'd be foolish to build a bracket to hold the original bracketry, that it'd be much more sensible to make a bracketry setup specifically four the D17 (wide front).

I'd like to see what the rest of you critters' creativity hath wrought...

So if 'ya have pictures of an automotive-type snowblade on a tractor, lemmie see it.

Oh, and if anyone has a V-plow on one... I've got a NF WD that I'm contemplating giving a wedge-nose look for the winter...
