SNOW PUSHERS!!

Postby Shopp'n Cubs » Thu Dec 30, 2004 12:27 pm

I don't plan on using my cub to push snow this year. I DO have a blade, but I want to clean/fix it up.

But I would really love to see some real photo's of some of the members pushing snow.

I have seen the pics in books and thought it would be neat to have a collection of you guy's and your cubs doing snow duty.

Let it snow :D

Looks like he needs some of that slick stuff on his blade.

I'd be happy to oblige you Guy--except we haven't had squat for snow around here...

Yea, we have not had any to speak of here either.

So just be ready with those cameras when it comes. Some nice action shots would be cool.

Thanks

Snow Pushers

Postby sviennadan » Fri Dec 31, 2004 10:13 am

I'd be happy to oblige too, but the Cub is in pieces in my garage as I try to repair the damage done when I tipped it into a dry creekbed this summer. Got 16 inches of the white stuff, and had to make do with a little 2-cycle snow blower. Pushed snow last year though, but nobody took photos!

I think I have some pictures from last year somewhere. I'll see if I can find them.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!

No snow here either, just wild temperature swings. Low of 0 with wind chills -6 four days ago, high yesterday of 64, and predicted today of 68 to 70.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!

sviennadan please give us details. Your misfortune may help some of us from doing the same thing. Most importantly you are here to tell us about it. I hope you weren't hurt when it happened.

Here are a few pics of my 1953 plowing snow last winter in northwest Massachusetts. I didn't have rear wheel weights, but I did have calcium and chains. Check out the home made snow extension plate by the previous owner. This year I have a 1958 with double rear wheel weights (no calcium) and chains, but have yet to try it out.

Hey BIGSCHUSS...That's SOME SNOW SON!!! Last time we had anything close to that was Feb. 1993 (The Blizzard of '93) :( .

I like your homemade drift extension and I assume you're wearin' an L.L. Bean mackinaw jacket...eeeeyyyaa! :D Are you out west of Springfield near I-89 in Vermont? At any rate, seasoned and split white oak in a Vermont casting wood stove (and some warm apple cider with Maker's Mark) will do the trick to warm you up after your next snow plowin' adventure!!! :wink:

HAPPY NEW YEAR BIGSCHUSS ! :)

Hello "Country" Elliot,

I actually own 2 LL Bean mackinaw jackets; an older one for working around my garage, walking the dogs, and plowing snow, etc., and a new one for deer hunting ONLY.

We are about as West as you can go in Mass; 25 minutes from the NY and VT borders, and my second mackinaw has been to both this year with no luck!

Happy New Year to you as well.
