Just spent a half hour studying every photo. I’m an ASE certified master mechanic who now translates industrial technical manuals. I’m extremely impressed with what you accomplished: concept, design, welding, mechanicals, torque prevention/protection, clever use of available materials, fit & finish, and your determination to finish the project, including the last 10% that seems to take 90% of the time and effort. The world’s a better place with people like you in it! All the best from an Upstate New Yorker living in Sweden.
BenJammin, might be the best compliment I’ll ever get. Really appreciate it. Not all people recognize the time and effort put in, or how deep the process goes. Again thx.
AWESOME My dad was very much like you he would put a lot of time and effort into his own ideas rather than going out and buying everything.
as you say, it's a very refined project for somebody that is not involved in engineering and fabrication, as you say too, the attention dedicated to the finition is very impressive,
the only point I see at glance that will need refinement is the engine power as the demo is done on free snow, on heavy / wet snow, the engine will be insufficient to clear the blower.
Yeah I'm pretty sure I'm going to copy some of this for a loader version for my 1025r. I'm really impressed to. You should be proud of your work!!
Ok this guy just said at least everything that I came to say. I am a career welder fabricator in the business of custom fabrication of basically anything a person would walk into my shop to talk about. Just a couple days ago I was considering a project of this nature with the very same Bolens single stage blower I have for my Bolens H 14. Reason is that the fixed speed of the Bolens pto is too slow to blow in a single stage design. Cudos for an excellently planned and executed project. If I were still in business I would try to hire you. I would like to hear your thinking and decision in regaurds to gearing ratios and auger speed. It seems to throw the snow really well. I wish you would give us another video featuring it in action more. Thanks for sharing a top grade project with us. Dan
As an ASE certified technician and a Mechanical Engineer, I have to say Well done!. This is the first time I have watched a home build video that didn't make me want to yell at the screen. It was well thought out, the welds weren't made of bubble gum. You had to forethought to put a clutch on the Auger drive. I especially like that you took the time to do it right the first time(weather sealed boxes, nicely painted, hell even custom decals) it wasn't just cobbled together. Nice work.
Steve Polhill ,thank you very much
hell yea a real pro job on that baby n it kicks ass to
Folks, what we have here is a man who has clearly had absolutely enough of winters shit, and decided to whoop ass, and take no names.. I salute you, friend.. This beers for you🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻....
I have the exact same tractor. Bought a used single stage blower that didn’t fit. Was going to just get rid of it until now. You give fabricators a new level of motivation. Great work!!!
i've been ssing around on a friends soft soft for years, finally bought it. I found your videos and instantly subscribed and have been
Fantastic job!! You got it all figured out!! 👍👍👍
Good work. I would have liked to hear it in operation rather than more of that song.
Ya, everything looks great except the music!
worst song ever. 11 horse to a single stage is impressive. a john deere 140 14 horse garden tractor from the 60's could be equipped with a 42 inch ss snowblower but it barely throws half as far while it is screaming. i reckon the tractor takes more than 3 horsepower to make the wheels turn.
Brian Feis exactly
What a PHENOMENAL JOB you did with this build!!! You’re a credit to back of a napkin design and garage tinkerer engineering everywhere!!! TOTALLY AWESOME ‼️😃
That was one of the finest videos I have watched. Especially when you look at the price of these blowers. Please do more. I loved the music as well. Regards
It is definitely well worth $1,500 for all the time and effort you have put into this “sno-ver kill” blower you have made! I think most people would buy this just for the fact that it was hand made from a great craftsman like you! Well done!
This thing Rocks! I love home engineers that can fabricate what they need or want. Awesome build! Now I have a bunch of ideas. Maybe some shop time for me is needed. You sir, are a genius!
Nice job!!!! I am an inventor (without blueprints)!!! and a perfectionist!!!! ....bringing thoughts to life!!! Nicely done Sir...My respects!!!!
Nice job. I love home engineers, my kind of people!
This snowbpower is a work of art! .. It is so cool to see someone pulling all their years of experience and ingenuity into some little project and take it to this level where most anyone probably wouldve just gone to Walmart and bought a snowblower
One hell of a build. What a bad ass machine.
This machine is a superlative work of American mechanical engineering artistry. Well done sir!
Dude! You have some serious skill. That is unreal. So well done, looks very professional. Looks like a $5k unit.
People like these are the ones making a difference in the world. Inventing and helping make a difference. Too bad probably 2% of the worlds population are as smart and skilled for improving.
That looked like so much fun to build ! My dad taught me to weld arc and gas when I was ten, I just love seeing what you can do with a little time and ingenuity. Beautiful job!
I've been using a 2 stage snow blower on my tractor for many years now. I'm sure you're happy with the results. Great job. Awesome build and price.
Cheers.
Holyshit....fantastic work my friend 👏 wow
I can appreciate everything you did to make that project work. Smart to have a separate power unit on the blower. Smart to be able to direct the snow to where you want it, or to keep going with the wind and not in your face. Hardwired remote for all functions and the whole thing articulates separate from the tractor. I just love your concept on this one!😁😎👍✊
Ed Spencer, thank very much
Impressive craftsmanship.
I did the same type of build with a 12 hp walk behind. A lot less fabrication. But your build is more interesting. Good job.
Seems like lots of people are so impressed you did all this, and you’re not some fancy, papered, ticketed engineer or master mechanic. Your workmanship and quality attention to small detail are excellent to be sure! I’m very impressed with what you’ve accomplished, but I’m not impressed at all that you were able to do this. You’re obviously brilliant and incredibly skilled, so of course, once you’re mind was set to the task you made it happen. Papers and tickets mean nothin in my world. There’s all kinds of engineers who are so daft they couldn’t install a door handle, or design one that works. Some are brilliant, many are not.
You sir, have proved your genius with the work of your hands!
Nice build, some dudes are just borderline genius.
Outstanding work and craftsmanship I am a 57 year old retired nuclear machinist. I am kinda new to the utube community and this has to be the BEST hands down video I've seen of a quality build on utube thus far. I've made steam engines and hit and miss engines from scratch but I would have loved to have helped you out with this, I tell you I would have been happy as a pig in mud to have had a hand in building this with you. The name of the unit is perfect too thanks for sharing this with us I truly appreciated it and your hard work.
Good job. Good video. Good tunes.
One of the Best damn reason to say “honey, ill be out in the garage...”
I bow down to you sir.
Great job, it's so satisfying when. You build things with your hands.
This is totally awesome work I am very impressed with the level of details I wish I had half this skillset.
awesome build I have an old 1970 jd 140 with similar single stage blower they work great the old stuff just lasts
Awesome build. Looks great.
Outstanding build quality.Stickers are a great finishing touch.Thanks for sharing
Thats art with metal, good video
I can appreciate the amount of planning. I worked on replacing a water tank on my RV. I'm a cabinetmaker but no gearhead. It took 10 days to take things apart and to keep digging out rot. to finish the repair was 3 months. Everything I did had to be planned so as not to foul up or cover something else needing attention but not done yet.
I just saw your video for the first time! Wow what else can I say! That shoots the snow farther than some of the devices the cities use!
The best of the homemade snowblowers on TH-cam. Thanks for posting!
I'm not an engineer or ASE certified, but I do work on this stuff for a living (and have for several years) and this is very likely the most solid snow blower I've seen that would be considered a "reasonable build".
Everytime I would think "but he didnt" about something, the next photo would come up and it was addressed. Bravo!
Lawn Fascist, appreciate it. Thx for watching
I have a Bolens Snow Caster for my 1969 Bolens 1220 Husky powered by a 12 HP Tecumseh. It is of course PTO powered and I do have the factory hydraulic lift. It works great the once a year (maybe) I get to use it here in a suburb of Portland Oregon. With that said, I'm very impressed with your finished project. Great job! I love seeing old Bolens things being brought back to use.
I love your custom belt guard
...thanks for sharing
An Amazing build....Cudo's to your attention to detail and your skills as a fabricator. I wish I had half that talent
Awesome build! I live in the desert southwest. Makes me wish I had your Sno-ver-kill and 3 feet of snow. That makes clearing snow fun!
Unbelievable build very well done! But the best part he knows how to use it! Slowing down for the big pile at the end! Most just blast right thru!
Most Bad Ass snowblower I have seen great workmanship skills and use of what's available awesome build
BADASS for sure. Very nice build!!
That is outstanding, I could only wish for half of your talent.
Awesome Job on the fabrication. AA++ for taking care of the small details!
Beautiful fab skills...just awesome!
Thats is the American Spirit that we all have. Cant find a good snow blower, Ill make my own. great job
I enjoyed watching this build. I have thought about building this myself before the big snow and ice storm this weekend here in upstate SC. Well it was the thought that counts!
Great job, it blows snow like a "boss".
Very very cool,Love the wedge shape at top of inlet! Im gonna do that.Thank you 73s
I wouldn’t know it was DIY if I saw it. Looks very clean and well put together.
What a beast. I thought it was going to be too much for your tractor to handle but I was wrong. Good cure for keeping the tractors rear wheels on the ground when you raise the blower.
Beautiful piece of work sir!! Excellent ingenuity as well.
Very impressive craftsmanship. A machine of beauty. Well done Sir!
Excellent fab skills! All that for $350 shows how resourceful you were. Great job, I enjoyed watching that.
WOW, just wow! $350, 180 although a lot, is fair for design/implementing/find error/redesign. I'd bet the manufacturers have more than that into a redesign of a previous model they've already built! Plus their gauge steel and welds can't compete. Your improvements like power turn tilt and toss, the winch lift, and dolly wheels to counter the jack wheels. Dude, your incredible, and if I ever see this thing I'm stopping to jump out of the truck and hug you for your awesomeness!
Don't worry about the haters, only single stage, hate that song, blah blah blah..... For a first post, it's excellent, especially since the build it was based on was a self designed beyond impressive mother of a beast! MOST EXCELLENT, and I hope you live nearby!
You did a awesome professional job. It’s amazing how a one stage works so well. I guess that extra HP helps. 👍🏻
That's one hell of a contraption ! Great job !
That was Amazing. Yes you have mad skills.
The name is a perfect fit. That thing is awesome. Incredible amount of hours I'm sure
As a non certified citizen I'm very impressed....looks like it can throw some snow.....nice work
Freaking awesome my friend... WOW 👌
Oustanding project.. I couldn’t imagine using a lawnmower to clear snow from my property in the winter. Broke a lot of sheer pins and bolts lately.👍🏻
You've got crazy fabrication skills your welds looked perfect and with the power setup with its weight im sure it sticks to the pavement. Nice work
Jay Kidd, thx man appreciate it.
Yeah. What he said.
Jay Kidd iomjnnnnnnnn.
That was one great build, I really love the way you made it all come together!
Great freakin' build! Nothing is hacked...all pro and as mean as a snow blower can be. Sick! Very professional job man. Nice work.
Very professional looking, and great video. God Bless from Phoenix.
Very impressed to say the least.
Only problem I see is that you're running two separate engines to do one job... but I guess that this is what you get with SNO-VER KILL 😉🤗😊
You are a very impressive genius at work on this beauty! 3 cheers to this build!
Well done,well planned,well built,great job!
Very impressive great build, you put a lot of thought into it and wonderful craftsmanship.
Hello,
Very nice build. I really like the way you used cheap parts.
It seems a little too thick steel for the motor mount/ chassis but it will last longer.
I admire the fact you have had the patience to really finish it an make it look like new.
Cheers from Belgium.
Wow! That looks like a high quality piece of equipment right there! But it’s just homemade. That looks really nice.
A brilliant job, well done! We had a 32” Bolens of that date and it was a workhorse that lasted, it would even throw water/slush easily.
You are definitely a fabricator , Nice job!
Really great.
you the man...looks great..clean...great job
OK, that was just fun to watch!
This was simply amazing and the music fit the video Perfect you should be proud of yourself with this astonishing creation
Nice job! Start to finish. The video work was wery well done. Thanks
So happy I found this video! It was pure enjoyment from start to finish. Amazing job! I wish my pops was still around to see it. He was a machinists and fabricator and would have really appreciated your work.. Hope that machine serves you well.
Mike K thanks really appreciate it, thanks for watching
Awesome machine, throws real good an you can travel at a decent pace.
Best build ive seen. Great job
So cool you are a very gifted person. I wish I you lived near me so I could see the beast. I would love to talk to you about a lot of your build. You rock !
Im a mechanical engineer and i am seriously impressed. I was actually looking at Berco snowblower attachments for my ATV the other day and what you made for 350$ cost about 4-5000$ new. Awesome work my friend. Makes me want to go build something
sugarloafgee, I know they bend you over on those things, thanks for the positive feed back. I hope you do go build something.
Awesome build. Tons of great ideas. My appreciation for you sharing will be visible when I acknowledge a few of your designs that I'm surely gonna use on my build. A 2003 crewcab s10 on solid axles front and rear. With a divorced transfer driving the truck and the stock transfer driving a hydraulic system. I hate disassembly + paint and finish lol. But it sure does show of the workmanship. Or at least it allows less mechanically educated viewers to appreciate your craftsmanship. It came out rad. I'd be proud as heck to blow my driveway and all my neighbors drives with her. I bet you start snow blowing when your weather guy says it gonna snow. For me thats every morning during our winter months. Stay out the box my friend. True visionary.
Totally awesome I love project builders
Great video! Excellent job!
Awesome best snow blower project ever I like to do that kind of work my self thanks for the video and good music quality!:)
Outstanding ! That's awesome !
Wow...beautiful job!!!
Loved this build and really liked the song to
KUDOS!!! Super job my friend.....Well Done!
Fantastic work! And you have that satisfaction from start to finish and then performance. Kudos to you! You need to build one for my 4wheeler.
Man I love the way you build things, you dont "chince" out on wimpy steel and other components. Your paint work is
exceptional as well. Wish you were my neighbor so you could build me one for my JD 318. The only complaint I
have on the video is the music in the background. I know thats just my opinion as others on these comments prefer the exactly opposite. I simply would enjoy just hearing you narrate and also hearing the engine cranking out the white stuff.
Dwig Miller, thx appreciate when someone recognizes the effort I put into it.
Awesome build, great skills...
Thats awesome. I'm surprised how far it throws being only single stage. Nicely done.
