I invented a new thing: A Skate.
This is a tool I use to move and store my snowblade for my John Deere 316.
I had been moving it around by just lifting it up, but I'm not getting any younger these days. I made this skate to allow for easier moving, but it turns out that it makes for easier installation, too.
I used scrap OSB and 2 x 4s. The only thing I purchased were 3 casters at Menards for $1.49 each. So, for just under $5, my back has been saved and I can install the snowblade twice as fast.

I made two skates: one for this snowblade, and one for the snowblower. It sure is nice to move things around the shop without skuffing up the floor.
