I figured if you didn’t fast forward through that part, you would get a kick out of it. Glad you didn’t miss it and I’m able to hold your attention a bit longer. 😆 I’m learning from the best! (No, not you) 😂🤣😂🤣
Hey Doug you should make a deal with Adam if he cleans your driveway he can haul all the snow to his place and stock pile it on the slope above his pond win win 🤔
I really like the way this video is edited. It stands as an example to other youtubers of how to keep it interesting. 1: get straight to the action 2: fast forward through slow stuff 3: leave out the boring stuff Nice work!
Nice set up, I have the basically the same hydraulic blade on the front of my tractor, but I have a 7' snow blower with hydraulic shoot on the back due to the large dumps we get in eastern Canada. The blower moves the snow away so efficiently for the deep stuff, the blade works really well for the smaller dumps and cleaning up. Great idea is to put a back-up camera mounted on the inside of the rear window and then use the monitor to watch the rear blower for me, but could watch your rear blade, don't need to turn around.
I don't have a cab on my M6800, but I can always add more clothing when it gets cold. But in the summer when its hot, I can only get so naked before the neighbors complain
Hey everyone watch the video all the way through skip the commercials if you like but then go back and rewatch it and let it play even with the commercials it the thumbs up and post to the social media this will help him the most. Heads up where I am in Iowa hit 61 today
Nice set up!!! I know you call TH-cam you should so I hate to say it however...... You should throw a couple two-by-fours under your blades both front and back so you don't leave rust stains on your cement. Ask me how I found this out🤪 Have a Jesus filled day everyone Greg in Michigan
I don't even have a driveway because i live too close to Chicago, so I get all my walks and a path through the yard for the dogs with a shovel and I have a decent snowblower if it's heavy. When I worked for the county fairground association they had a couple deeres and the smaller one had a plow like yours. Yours is much nicer though. Have you ever pushed snow with a skidsteer? They can do a 180 in place, you can almost always push yourself out of being stuck by tilting the blade straight down to the ground and using the tilt and drive to push yourself. The only downside is the huge blindspot, but it's super easy to just turn around in place so it works well, in my own experience. My personal favorite setup to push snow was once last year the truck i was driving the front axle broke mid shift and I got to drive the bosses nice new platinum f250 with a split blade with wings for the rest of the shift. It had a back dragger too but the comfy ride was what did it for me, and not being able to see through the floor. Dirt monkey was showing this machine on his channel that looks like a mini loader, I forgot the name but he said even with a push box it has way better traction and maneuverability than the big loader.
I have used my wheel skid loader in the past as well as my track loader, all with this front plow. (Yea, I’ve had the plow that long) I find that the very large wheels on the tractor has a huge advantage. I’ve never been stuck on the tractor. The wheel loader was better than the track loader on pavement but the track loader is better in deep snow. But ultimately, the tractor has never left me stranded and like you said. The visibility is far better in the tractor as well.
@@OneEyeCustoms I hear ya, I enjoy plowing. First winter in years I haven’t spent many nights in the cab pushing for the town. Now and then, I was there two weeks ago visiting Outside with Scheib. I’d imagine you’re a ways farther though, north of Pitt?
@@OneEyeCustoms Maybe next time I drive out for a WVU football game, although lately they haven’t been worth the drive 😂 I’d love to check out your shop firsthand.
First thing, always the best videos. Love the Kubota tractor. My son has one he bought a couple of years ago. It’s nicer than my first new car. I did wonder, do you have any kind of options for putting a camera on the back of the Kabota to see when you’re backing up a little easier? I think I’ve even seen where you can attach a pole to the front as well? Maybe with the technology today they just attach to the top of the cab and have a zoom capability and a bigger field of view left to right. Now, love the red Challenger that shares the garage with the Kabota. Could it be a Hellcat by any chance? See you in the next installment.
I can understand Doug. The hellcat has a black key & a red key. I think the black key is the 500 HP Hellcat. The red key unlocks an additional 300+ HP. Yep, 800+ HP. Crazy!
So Doug what kind of software do you use to edit your videos? Nice plow setup and keep up the great videos I like the driveway markers and there set up by the way !
@@OneEyeCustoms thank you, it seems to be a lot more user friendly and more features than iMovie app. from apple. I already have this weeks video about done. The help is much appreciated!
I use steel edges. Yes it does scrape off the sealer coat on the high spots. Can I ask where you got your poly edges? I think I would like to try that.
@@OneEyeCustoms Good Works Tractor in Michigan has them in stock. Courtney is a good guy to deal with. You can check his website, and if you would rather call they answer the phone!
thank goodness for video speed or plowing would have taken all day with just an inch when you get 24 inches do a new video and by the way, an old tire cut up a bit bolted to steel makes a better plow it does not beat up your road surface
2 camera setup in the cab was a nice touch
I figured if you didn’t fast forward through that part, you would get a kick out of it. Glad you didn’t miss it and I’m able to hold your attention a bit longer. 😆
I’m learning from the best! (No, not you) 😂🤣😂🤣
Nice setup... I have an open cab John Deere so I will have to stick with the F250 with a v-plow!!! Have a good day and stay warm!!!
This video is geared more towards commercial parking lot plowing. Your driveway is insane. Great video like always.
When you come back, I’ll give you and Keystone girl shovels. 😆😆
Nice to see your seasonal activities around your beautiful property! Thanks for the vid on a cold day. 👍

Love the tune Dougy, so appropriate for the time.
Hello Doug, Brought back Memories of my Old Kubota M5-091 tractor, even opened up the state roads with it👍🏼🚜❄️🇺🇸
Very cool!
Nice set up, I have the basically the same hydraulic blade on the front of my tractor, but I have a 7' snow blower with hydraulic shoot on the back due to the large dumps we get in eastern Canada. The blower moves the snow away so efficiently for the deep stuff, the blade works really well for the smaller dumps and cleaning up. Great idea is to put a back-up camera mounted on the inside of the rear window and then use the monitor to watch the rear blower for me, but could watch your rear blade, don't need to turn around.
I agree with you Doug, clearing snow can be therapeutic.
I don't have a cab on my M6800, but I can always add more clothing when it gets cold. But in the summer when its hot, I can only get so naked before the neighbors complain
That sure is the truth! Probably worth a try just to see how they would react.😆
I live in the country and Amish all around. I was mowing last summer in my speedo and the amish neighbors would slow down and stare
I wish we had a little more snow to really give my rigged up Meyer plow mounted on the forks of my John Deere 870 a good test.
Yeah, that's my fault. I was prepared for snow this year...
LOL!
I adapted a Boss V plow from a truck to skid steer mount this winter and have only had enough snow to use it for 10 minutes.
We haven’t had much snow here yet either.
I use the snowplow on Polaris Ranger most of the time on the blacktop. I have an 8 foot blade plow for the tractor when the snow gets deep.
Are we going to get a “There’s got to be a better way.” video adding a tilt cylinder to the rear blade to the rear remotes?
The rear remotes are actually running the angle on the front plow. I don’t have a second set on the tractor, but that is a good idea!
We don't get enough snow in my area to worry about but I always enjoy plowing videos.
If you don't want the blades to freeze to the floor, put some wood chocks under them before your lower them.
I agree. When you have the right equipment snow removal is a therapeutic experience.
Yes it is!
Hey everyone watch the video all the way through skip the commercials if you like but then go back and rewatch it and let it play even with the commercials it the thumbs up and post to the social media this will help him the most. Heads up where I am in Iowa hit 61 today
It would seem to me that a video such as this would be so much better in a situation that actually needs to have snow removal done. not in a dusting
It has been such a mild winter this year. If we gat a good snow storm, I’ll be sure to show what it can really do. Thanks for watching.
Great video you really got it down pat
Thanks!
I have to say your one talented individual. And you got some nice toys there. You have some great videos.
Thank you!
Nice set up!!!
I know you call TH-cam you should so I hate to say it however......
You should throw a couple two-by-fours under your blades both front and back so you don't leave rust stains on your cement.
Ask me how I found this out🤪
Have a Jesus filled day everyone
Greg in Michigan
Smart idea with the driveway markers
Thank you!
I'm thinking you need at least 2 more garages. LOL! All kidding aside, I still prefer blowers.
I agree on more garages!!!!!

Great setup Doug, I’d like to get one of those plows for my driveway someday, this year we haven’t had to plow at all in CT!
I’ve only plowed twice this year and neither time really even needed it.
Kinda nice, but I do enjoy getting on the tractor to plow!
Stay warm!
Do you guys ever make it down towards Pa.?
@@OneEyeCustoms I hear ya, I enjoy plowing. First winter in years I haven’t spent many nights in the cab pushing for the town. Now and then, I was there two weeks ago visiting Outside with Scheib. I’d imagine you’re a ways farther though, north of Pitt?
About 2 hours north of the city. Straight shot up though. Next time you are in the area, give me a shout, we can grab Adam and get together.
@@OneEyeCustoms Maybe next time I drive out for a WVU football game, although lately they haven’t been worth the drive 😂 I’d love to check out your shop firsthand.
Forgive a basic question from the South, do you have a float detent on your ftont loader and rear hitch?
Just on the front loader. The back blade has a stop point you can set for down distance.
First thing, always the best videos. Love the Kubota tractor. My son has one he bought a couple of years ago. It’s nicer than my first new car. I did wonder, do you have any kind of options for putting a camera on the back of the Kabota to see when you’re backing up a little easier?

Now, love the red Challenger that shares the garage with the Kabota. Could it be a Hellcat by any chance? See you in the next installment.
The Challenger is my son’s car and it is not the hellcat. Not sure I would want him driving one of those.
I can understand Doug. The hellcat has a black key & a red key. I think the black key is the 500 HP Hellcat. The red key unlocks an additional 300+ HP. Yep, 800+ HP. Crazy!
When’s the next video dropping Doug?
I have a couple in process. Not sure when they will finish up yet.
So Doug what kind of software do you use to edit your videos? Nice plow setup and keep up the great videos I like the driveway markers and there set up by the way !
I use InShot video editor. Free app. Do the editing on my iPad. Has worked well for me.
@@OneEyeCustoms thank you, it seems to be a lot more user friendly and more features than iMovie app. from apple. I already have this weeks video about done. The help is much appreciated!
You are welcome! Good luck with it and keep practicing the editing. I seam to learn something new with it every video I edit.
Do you use a steel edge or poly edge on the plow and blade? I’ve found my steel edge has ruined my paved driveway. replaced with poly this year.
I use steel edges. Yes it does scrape off the sealer coat on the high spots. Can I ask where you got your poly edges? I think I would like to try that.
@@OneEyeCustoms Good Works Tractor in Michigan has them in stock. Courtney is a good guy to deal with. You can check his website, and if you would rather call they answer the phone!
@@OneEyeCustoms goodworkstractors. Although I’m a week and half out and still not shipped. Label created day after I bought it.
Does your run off happen to make it to Adam's pond? lol
Nope, he would have to pump that. Haha
I have a M6800 and love it. Does yours have glow plugs?
Yes, if you turn the key just before the start position and hold it there, that’s what I was told is the glow position.
@@OneEyeCustoms that works thanks
What rpm do you plow in?
I use the foot throttle all the time, pretty much for everything. So I really don’t have an idea. Usually from a little above idol to 3/4 throttle.
0:55 If only you knew someone with a gas or electric snowblower...
Hahahahaha
thank goodness for video speed or plowing would have taken all day with just an inch when you get 24 inches do a new video and by the way, an old tire cut up a bit bolted to steel makes a better plow it does not beat up your road surface
We haven’t gotten 24” in one day since I was a kid, but I’ll do my best with a better snow fall.
