True, but very unlikely I'll be doing that sort of work in the winter months.

Thanks for that insight, I assumed as much.

No sure about that, it is not "plastic" and I am sure with an 800 pound capacity someone has tossed some dirt/rocks in it... If they broke quickly the interwebs would be full of 1000's complaints

Ha! I'm good. Living in Canada is bad enough...

I currently use a ballast box when I snow blow, filled it with old patio stones etc. (maybe 200 pounds in total) and works very well, but I'd prefer something that had more uses..

Well, unless you have use for a backhoe. I think for most residential uses a backhoe is the least required attachment. I need a backhoe to do some work on my property this spring, but with the costs I'm better off to rent one for the day...

Awesome idea and great post. I opted out of the hydraulics on mine due to the pricing, but I have no issues with the hand crank. Mind you, I only turn it 2 to 4 times when I clear the snow and never touch the top of the chute.

My thoughts exactly or to push around the slushy stuff..

That is a cool idea, and we are already considering this. But living in Canada we get long and drab winters, so I need something for that time as well..

Interesting, I have seen many YT video's on this, but with my schedule and age, I'd prefer a home based business. But Best of luck on the new venture!

There was a time where you'd loose a hand if you got caught stealing... Nothing will ever deter crime and/or criminals...

All excellent points, I am thinking of getting some tire ballast at some point. But, you cannot get a backhoe on the BX1880 as far I was told. But agreed it is of very limited use.

Wow, that is an excellent set up. I was thinking of something along the same lines. Something I can create and ship on etsy etc. I have a few idea's but wanted to see what others are doing..

Those look awesome, and will be a plan for the future, right now I need something small and inexpensive. Have some "tight space" landscaping to do this spring, after a hefty unexpected foundation repair...

If the money is good, poop is good business as it never ends... LOL

Sadly the fencing around the perimeter of my property fell into disrepair (years before I purchased it) While I plan on fixing it, it will be slow going as it is nowhere near the top of the list..

Funny that is what my property started out as (many years before I purchased it) while I like horses, I have never worked with them..

I'm on 5 acres and it is conservation area, so I am limited as to what I can build on it, plus a little small for that. But an excellent idea..

Great questions, you know I have really put some thought into this and come up blank. I think I'd like to work with my hands and be somewhat creative, I have always enjoyed working with wood..

Any one here currently doing or thinking of a side hustle? I've got a large 99% empty barn on my property and thinking of something practical to use it for beside storing junk. Looking for idea's that can generate a little extra income (I work full-time) but don't break the bank to start up? I...
