Looking good Steve. Expecting an early winter? You really shouldn't be doing something like that before your freezing your fingers.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

Here's a pic of the loader I built for my "B"

I just realized I posted an older pic of the front blower that only shows the plough lift that came with the tractor when I got it 10 or 12 years ago.
Here's the front mounted blower. I think the wires to the chute turner I cobbled out of a little 12 VDC winch are long enough, we'll see.

I wasn't even aware of that forum - not that I have time to devote to yet another forum.  (six seems to be my limit). I will start doing a bit of lurking over there though.  Thanks much.Great shot of the "B" btw. -Ron
