Working that baby! Had our first significant snow here in southern IL last week, about 5-6" worth.

Was that in real time or sped up a bit?

'cheap' ? At $175 Canucks, that ain't 'cheap' to me.....
All mine cost was couple hours of shop time as I have lot of 'stuff' lying about.
I understand some don't have welders and such but at that price, welder is FREE after the first one is made....

That's a waste of time to dump the bucket every time. Use the bucket as a plow and tip it only when it's full. Also, a back blade helps to scrape the last inch or so. I saw you back dragging the snow to make it look pretty.

I prefer NO SNOW and so far, we haven't had enough worth putting the 1- foot plow or the 72" blower on for.

Fine with me.

Don't look at snow removal as fun. Just a way to consume diesel that realizes no profit for me.

Looser all the way around.

I will say that when we get snow, 2 foot drifts are nothing. Around here, more like 6 to 8. Last winter.... yes, So far this winter NOTHING of consequence. I don't even bother unless we get 5" and it's windy.

Can stay like it is until April for all I care.
