Default Anybody tried to build a snow blade from scratch?

Looking at how badly my blade is worn, I began to wonder how hard it would be to build a blade. Looks like it's only about 16 gauge metal. I could cut the braces out with my torch and probably form the sheet metal over a sonotube or barrel or something. I might even get my steel supplier to form it for me on their equipment.

I have an almost new MTD blade that would not be hard to convert, but I hate to use it, since I plan to sell it with my Lowe's tractor to pay for my Cub overhaul.
