Very cool build! I'd love to do something similar, but we never get snow in Miami.

Would be nice to do. However I don't think it could handle a Wisconsin winter.

Very very good job. Since we are almost at winter here in the north Europe, I'm also going to give it a shot. Just wondering how did you make the plow to move up and down with a servo. how did you mount it. |

Ok when I saw the title "AX-10 Snowplow" I was thinking what the hell and why, but I have to say this thing is freakin sweet.

Thanks to that explaining pic. Now all I have to do is make my own. Because we already have like 5'' of snow. And it started snowing yesterday afternoon. Nice weather and superfun. Winterdrift is common around here. |

| Well we got some snow but due to the near 70deg weather the past few days the snow is only on the grass. . I may use some sawdust analog to test her out. |

Great work. Just an idea, but coming from someone that has done a couple of these you are going to burn up that 645MG for turning the plow. Anytime you hit some snow, or catch a crach in the driveway/sidewalk all that stress will come back to the servo. It looks like there is a lot of mechanical advantage the plow will have in stripping the servo (as inward as you have it mounted). Try putting a servo saver on it and that will help immensely.
