It looks like im gonna have to try to build a snow blade for my 712H because I can't find one within a reasonable driving distance. So my question is. Im gonna have to use wood and such as I have no welding equipment or metal parts lying around (I know its not as durable as metle but I figured that's what they first used with horses and its just got to last me for awhile). Ive pretty much have the mount figured out of how im gonna make it but as for the blade. Would it be better to make a curved one out of wood or just us a flat piece of Dura plate I have for it? The blade lord willing and the crik don't rise will be 42" wide 15" and a 1/2 high. Any tips and pointers will be appreciated. thanks

For my WD I used wood with angle iron for mounts and a scraping blade. Mine is 2 boards high, so put some washers on the top one to angle it down a little. I get a little coming over the top, but not too bad.

Seth. If you can find it a ride, i have a blade with no mounting attachment from a B series I will give you. All you would have to do is build or adapt a mount.

Fastenal stores will ship a snow blade for a pretty reasonable price.

Fastenal is a chain of retail stores that sells specialty hardware:
 
 
They also offer shipping services. I'm thinking it would be under $100 to ship the blade from Oklahoma.

I used a 4x4 bottom and 2x4s for brace  with 3/4 plywood and angle iron for bottom skid 8 foot wide for a 720 - I just bolted it to the original blade to get angle and hyd lift. Easy push up to 8" snow if you have weight on back. I would go 6' wide for your tractor.

Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are sexy.
