Here are some pics of the box blade my son and I built last week. I taught my son to cut and weld while building it. I just wish I could say all the bad looking welds were his. I have less than $20 in it including bolts and welding rods. It's made primarily from an F750 fuel tank, but I guess the filler neck on top probably gave that away. The angle iron came from an old dog yard. The previous home owner used it for fence posts. When I get the steel to build a sleeve hitch, I'll cut off the one I fabbed on it. It's a little heavy about 150lbs, but I can lift it with one hand by tightening up on the spring assist. I used it for a couple of hours and had just unhitched it when my 126 "slung a rod". It worked surprisingly well.
