All one has to do to counterbalance one's carbon footprint is go for a short walk everyday or buy a bicycle. Don't even need to ride it. At that point you can feel free to go pour all the hydrocarbons and emissions you want into the atmosphere. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,922 #28 Posted March 3, 2021 So here’s my thoughts. Get ready, they seem to wander! @DennisThornton has been liking the side mount wing plows lately. Toss one side saddle! Look for #4 to gang a whole nether side saddle too! Carbon footprint? I didn’t see any smoke. I’ve seen electrical let the magic smoke out. What’s the difference? Also, this is amazing! There’s no embarrassment of parts that I can see! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been doing some thinking. I have 18 Lawn Boy mowers. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rjg854 11,389 #33 Posted March 3, 2021 I'd like to see the turning radius of this contraption. Just how manuverable is it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gregor 4,846 #34 Posted March 3, 2021 It does not turn well, as you can imagine. I have 4, 4" casters laying here I have been studying. So far I have not figured out a good, (as in in-expensive) way to mount them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gregor 4,846 #35 Posted March 3, 2021 Ok, maybe they aren't actually wings. Maybe they are Outer Peripheral Snow Gatherer Upperers. The total width of the snow blowers was about 31". Same as the tractor. I thought these OPSGU's might help some. I'm really going to be disappointed if it doesn't snow again. I usually don't have a beer until about 2. It's only 1. Wait ! It's after 2 where some of you guys are! Works for me. May seem kind-a early to some of you, but I have already been up 11 hours. So it's OK. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clearly someone who either had a lot of snow to clear or wanted to do it very quickly! I do note some confusion among the blowers on which direction to throw the snow! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gregor 4,846 #40 Posted March 4, 2021 I just noticed the handle. You mean you gotta man handle that thing? I figured it mounted on a tractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
