Snowblower for homemade articulated tractor

Most everyone who sees my homemade articulated tractor (with a 4-cylinder Nissan pickup engine)asks me what I'll use it for, so I thought I'd better dream up some implements for it. Pictured are some views of a snowblower I've attached. I didn't have a good way to tap into the tractor engine to power the snowblower, so I added an 18-hp vertical shaft supplementary engine. I use one of my hydraulic controls to power the orbit motor rotating the spout and the other to raise and lower the blower. Assuming this machine works like I think it will, I'll plan on adding about a foot on each side of the blower so it clears a wider path.
