-  Well today I have decided that I would do a comparison between my snow pusher that I built a couple years ago and the new angle blade. We have about 6 inches of snow. It’s a bit on the heavy side but not terrible. I’m going to go to the church and I’m gonna split the church parking lot into two and plow, one side with one of the blades, and the other  with the snow pusher I hope you come along and see which one works best. Maybe it will give you an insight if you’re looking at buying one or the other.

I never would have thought...Excellent comparison, thanks for taking the time to share.
I really that that the snow pusher would have been faster. I certainly hope that it helps people make a decision if there buying. I even thought that a person could put sides on the blade and make it into a snow pusher. You could have the sides removable so you stop the snow from making a wind row.
Both work well.
It’s a toss up between the two.
Have you tried not taking the full width of snow. Maybe 3/4 or what ever it takes not to leave a winrow Cleaning up looks like a lot of extra time to me?
I am talking about the angle blade.
Yes I have. What I find that happens is you end up with a big berm and because you continuously push against it, it gets heavier and heavier and more packed. It’s easier to do a wider width and deal with the winrows. If the length and width was as long or wide you can. In my next video on my driveway I do exactly what you describe. Thanks for checking out the video. Cheers
@@puddlejumper3534 ok that makes sense. Maybe with lighter or not so heavy the other way might work. When I plow with dump truck I am travelling with some speed and it throws the snow farther so it doesn’t pile up like you say. Guess there is a quite a weight difference with that type of plowing!
Yes your exactly right truck travels faster. an average of 20 km an hour 15 the tractor in medium gear might do 6 km an hour and pushing the snow it doesn’t go quite that fast so it doesn’t have the speed to throw it. When I use to do the church with the skid steer, it didn’t go fast at all and it would hardly push the snow out the angle side so I may try it with my truck. I just purchased a 1 ton with a 9 foot Blade, it’s just I think there’ll be a lot of backing up and you can see so much better out of it tractor so that’s why the tractor might take a bit longer but I may try it like I say we haven’t had a lot of snow this year so just getting it done. Thanks for your comments. I will certainly try it next time.
If you make first pass with angle blade and they take max 3/4 of blade every pass following you will have far less to go back and clean up because you are allowing it to fall off the top side of angle. With straight ox/blade you have no options other than to allow it to spill off the sides. If snow is heavy you will never push as much with a straight push an you do with an angle. You wasted a ton of time and repeatedly going over same spots because you did not use angle uniformly , there should be minimal clean up after your angle pass
