note;

Iv started preparing for winter so a new snowplough is being created.

also I need someone to go and pic there faviourate pics from at least 1 year back so I can take them again as a comparison shot so I can see hows it all grown and changed (Id do it myself but I dont want the pics to be biased)

just a couple mind I dont need 200 odd and if you read this and 10 or so have already been selected and posted up by someone else dont go and pick 10 of your own cause like I said I only need a couple  

thanks

well I wouldnt use it on anything metal that can rust because it really is rust and it would probably spread and actually cause the metal to rust away.

Nice plow. I'd like to see someone make a live steam rotary plow, with a marine engine for power. Be pretty neat.
