I sure don't want you to be disappointed Roy come on down 6 1/2" of fluffy snow more to fall before midnight... home cook meal venison potatoes gravy veggie home made bread.

I appreciate the offer...looks like 5-6 inches so far, and still coming down steady...slows a bit for a while, but than seems to be coming down strong.
I reckon we'll see what we get when it's over...

Well as far as I know we are scheduled for up to 12" but are real close to the 12-18" "line". I went & bought $435 worth of screw in studs. Just played (plowed) in a few inches of snow on top of ice and I am pleased in just 2WD. I put 2 studs in each bar, 160 pc. on the rears and 144 in the fronts. A friend turned me on to a great chain place in Tamworth NH, great chain prices and the studs in stock. A great logger's supply place in general with Husky saws too, Windy Ridge is their name.

Check out a 7' Curtis snow plow blade mounted on our John Deere 3038e - Having fun!!!

Over the last few weeks we have had over 12"+ of snow fall and it's finally time to get our JD 3038e and 7' Curtis plow blade out. After adjusting the feet for the right depth with the gravel and having a little patience with how to properly control the level of the plow this thing makes light work of clearing the driveway (about a .10 of a mile). Check out some footage we shot after a 3" heavy wet snow fell on Christmas Eve. My parents were visiting for Christmas so my Dad got 1st chance at clearing the driveway. I am actually excited about more snow falling on my driveway now.

Do you remove those studs in the Spring?

That's my plan. Now that I took on some driveways with roading involved I have not used my good ice chains for 2 reasons. Scarring up the driveways that are paved and premature wear. I was worried that tonights snow might be heavy & wet from earlier weather predictions, so far (5") it's a nice snow and the weather people say the rain/snow line will be only around 5 miles inland.:cool2:
Sorry your snow turned out to be a big tease Roy:thumbdown:

Wasn't bad, actually...about 7" or so of powder, which is great for snow blowing...

I'm in the pink area but have only received about 8" so far.

I would worry about leaving marks in the driveways... will be interested to hear what you experience with these studs.
