As the saying goes: "Do you like to ride - love to carry sledges," and in the winter, when a lot of snow falls, you have to constantly clean the house area and driveways. And to clear the rubble of snow, scrapers are used in the form of a large shovel (and, in fact, in the form of a bucket).

And all would be fine, only purchased scrapers made of thin plastic, which "keeps on the snot", are somehow already very expensive. Not everyone will want to overpay, especially since the service life of such a scraper is, at best, for one season.

And therefore, if you have free time, tools and material, you can make a scraper for snow removal from plywood and boards. To make a bucket, the author uses a small piece of plywood 4 mm thick.

The main stages of work

Next, you need to make the side walls of the scraper, which will be attached to the plywood. And for this, the master cuts two blanks from the board. If there is an edged board, then the work will not take much time.

In the next step, it will be necessary to screw the plywood to the side walls with self-tapping screws. For reliability, boards and plywood are best glued. PVA is not suitable for this purpose - it is afraid of moisture, but you can use mounting foam.

Then it remains only to strengthen the lower part of the bucket with a strip of galvanized steel and attach the handles, which the master made of wooden battens. And to protect against moisture, the scraper is best covered with a layer of varnish.
