      kai russell thanks man! that was the first plow I made we made it accidentally got thrown away when we cleaned the garage. Then I made plow 2.0. It’s a few videos after this one. 👍🏼 ohh I posted the package you sent. I didn’t add everything in the video. It felt super personal and I really appreciate what you did and sent me my friend! I’m going to proudly display it when I find the right display case.

    Glad to see others building and adapting their own equipment. I'm a C6 quad and do my own plowing as well, though I went the route of transferring onto an ATV with a plow and just bypass the power chairs for these sorts of things. Looks like you could even get improved plowing if you were to be able to angle the blade and also make it a bit wider so it makes a clearer path for your tires. By angling the blade it pushes the snow off to the side instead of just building up in front of the blade. Clears big areas much faster.

    Great idea, thanks for sharing! Most people don't appreciate the amount of torque electric engines have. Winter does present some very challenging mobility issues. However, challenges are what we do best! Good luck brother and happy trails.

    I would straight up blow my head off if I was a quadriplegic...

      In actuality YOU probably wouldn't be able to! Because best of luck handling a gun well enough to even aim it properly! Not to mention having the motor function to load it without dropping the shells and then you're just gonna sit there and stare at shells that you hoped had your name on it, on the floor. Then finally being able enough to pull the trigger. Not so fun fact my little brother made that exact choice 8 years ago at 26. I could never put my family through that kind of pain again. By your comment I assume you've never felt that kind of pain.
      Honestly being a quadriplegic isn't so bad. Yes I'm sure there are those who have wanted to. Even many able bodied people have those thoughts. But nah i still love life! I hope you never have to endure this life my friend. Have a great day ... I am! I get to hang out with my beautiful girlfriend.
