Home Made Back Blade
 

A friend gave me an Old 100 lbs. Propane Tank. I decided to use it, and build a Back Blade. I used a drill press, stick welder and a 4.5 inch hand grinder to complete this project. I used the Brinley Moldboard Beam, whereby there are some adjustments to the cutting angle. I also had to reinforce the Sleeve Hitch for strength. There are 30°, 45°, 90° Blade angle adjustments on Horizontal and Vertical plains. So far I have done some trial Soil Leveling which has worked well. The last Item I need is a cutting edge. I am now researching to add an Independent Rear Hydraulic Cylinder probably using a Ball Valve & the second Hydraulic Control Valve I installed. Has anyone added an independent Rear Hydraulic cylinder?

Looks Good ! Reminds me of the older Sleeve Hitch blades That were always Taller then today's Brinly sleeve Hitch Blade
