For lovers of gadgets - Snow plow
A delight in winter
is plowing the tracks outside in the garden when there was some snow. No doubts, a snow plow is a must.
Basic equipment for quick plowing fun when there was a little snow.
A simple solution
incorporating a short piece of plastic gutter from the DIY-store, a piece of flat of brass as a fixture and a gondola from a Toytrain starter set as well as some decorative details - that's all what is required to build a snow plow.Stones as a load and fixed axle holders provide for a stabilized ride. The ball bearing wheels' power pick-ups are connected to the loco (or locos, see movies below) via sockets - which is of great advantage in snow.
