Ha, Ha, Ha,
My one friend had two crews and he said I made more money working alone than he did after all his expenses for the workers. I could not believe some of the things those kids did to wreck his equipment.
Todays pics shows me repairing the two snow scoops I bought 10 years ago. They are now $50.00 ea. at our local hardware store. I put a rounded cutting edge on one of them for uneven surfaces and a nice sharp edge on the other one for scraping the driveway nice and clean. These things work great for just 1-3 inches of snow and it is great winter exercise.:cool2:

Very Cool !!!
Here is a update on my JD 758 4x4 tractor. It has been 8 weeks now since they delivered it and it has still not been used. We have had over 50 inches of snow since then but the Walk behind , the steiner 4x4 and the mini Loader do the job quite well. I guess the new one is my backup machine if the others all fail. My most used plow is still the walk behind plow.

Pretty soon you will need to put a trickle charger on it.

Your probably right , ha,ha.
Todays picture is a project I was going to build with a Garden tractor rear axle, engine and hydraulic pump. I even had the 33 in. tall tires and rims I was going to use. Then the bottom fell out of the economy and I changed my mind. I was going to operate it with RC controls. Some days I still think about building this for me and then I can plow my driveway from the living room window.:laughing:

Now that would be really nice not having to go out in the cold. I have a buddy that built a remote controlled mower. He sent me a picture of him sitting in his dinning room mowing his front yard. I will have to try and find that picture.

Todays pics show my backyard and the grader, the rear engine jd , the frame steer bolens , the hot rod jd, the narrow front jd and several of my small lawn trailers . I won't see them again until April when the snow melts. I have canvas tarps over them but I do not like them sitting outside. This is why I cannot ever buy another garden tractor until I sell a few of them.:confused2:

Many years ago I used to go to a area dealer and they sold these compact 4x4 articulating Pasquali tractors. My favorite ones were the ones with duel wheels . A few years ago I went to look at a used one to buy but the transmission had issues the the owner said parts were hard to get. Many times while I was building my mini 4x4 articulating tractor I thought of these cool little tractors from the 70's we used to go look at.

I would love to have one of those!
