Only someone that lives in a place where a snowthrower is used
would have enough time to make one!
I just had my driveway area done by a guy in a huge JD tractor
and an 8 foot wide blower!
It's cheaper than owning and maintaining your own.
Very nice job on the 2 stage thrower, the auger is a piece
of art. It looks like the real thing, which is also not
a solid screw as the snow would tend to bunch up.
They hollow screw shape breaks up chunky snow or ice very
effecively.
Well done!

I vote for a BIG tractor driving this one!

| As I promised earlier, here are pictures of the working snowblower. But I'm sorry that I dont have real pictures of the thing since I still don't have a digital camera. I should also liked to have a video of it when it was working out in the snow :) (...) (21 years ago, 9-Feb-04, to lugnet.technic)
