Anyone have Snowblower attachment?

With all the white stuff falling this winter and our discussions about best ways to move and dispose of it, I was wondering whether anyone in our group has a Powertrac snowblower attachment, and if so what they think of its performance.

Sorry mine is home made and still a work in progress. But so far, so good, other than a few needed alterations

I'm in my 3rd year with it and it works quite well. It works best in 6" or more snow and I love the fact I can change the chute direction from the seat based on what the wind is doing. I did build myself a cab which helps with the blowing snow.
That"s not to say there could be some improvements. The idler on the drive chain is really poor, I have adjusted OK, but it doesn't stay tight. I also would have a replaceable blade on the bottom, but other than that it's pretty good. I'm glad I bought it.

Thanks for the info DC. I'm sure just as soon as I would buy one, we would have no more snow here in sw VA for years to come. I was talking w/ someone in your neck of the woods (Conway, NH), and they were bemoaning the fact the we are getting all the snow down here, with little up their way so far this Winter. I'm not too far from Tazewell, so this may be a good excuse to drive over there and see one up close. Thanks again.
