After @ three seasons, the bottom front edge of the rubber blade becomes dull, and it doesn't clean very well. But, you still have three more edges (9 more years). Plus, after those nine years, use a tire grooving tool to make long and diagonal grooves. According to the way I see it, it looks like I don't have to buy another blade.
Yes, James; as you can see after 0:56 of the video, most parts are accessible from any hardware. The only part with some modification is a made hook to catch the rear lip of the bucket.
Awesome job! Love how you repurposed those lumbers. Simple, but effective. I'll have to jimmy one up for myself. Thanks for sharing.

Thank You for sharing this! I'm definitely going to fab one up for my Kubota. I have turf tires on mine - might need chains.
I have a hilly driveway and using a rubber blade is a must. It prevents sliding when going down, and also I get a clean path.
I like it! The only thing I'd change maybe is add longer wings so it could collect more snow, but yeh man brilliant!
yep will be making one too
Nice job, where did you get the Rubber cutting edge?
I had the rubber blade from this place: www.snowengineeringdivision.com/
Is the bracket from the turnbuckle to the rear of the bucket homemade?
