(blade and wheel shown on one side only, other side is identical)

Design Rationale

This is like a box blade, except for hilling by spilling soil through an adjustable channel.
Uses standard library - box tubing, same frame as flail mower and keyline plow. This is the universal drawbar.
Bearings are used to mount the blade, and angle of blade is adjustable via bearing pivot. Rear bearing is adjustable as well
Height of blade is adjustable by hydraulically controlled wheels
Standard 3x8" cylinders
Idler wheel library is used
Implement is trainable - more implements can be strung behind it.
Designed to go behind a flail mower for hilling operation
Keyline plow and planter follows this machine.
Drawbar can be replaced with various other length as needed.
Frame is welded to serve as a universal implement bar, with everything else being bolt-on.
1/4" wall square tubing, 4"x4" is used. 1/2" wall tubing can be substituted for heavier duty.
