I'm sure you got what we did, this snow was heavier and packing, it heaves in front of you. Nice to be in a cab at least. I just checked with the other place in Ball$ton Spa, the help got it cleared out, and they got the snow off the roof using heat, don't need a pile of sticks again like in early '09. They ran some salamanders in the center to get some heat to rise, slid right off. I hate the though of those being used on a barn but the center is 50' wide, all old arena footing, no hay or anything nearby.
Clearing this place and the neighbors took from 7:30-215pm, a nice deep heavy packing snow, my 850 ford with loaded tires, double ring chains and that heavy cast iron weight, got stuck twice, once on a slight incline/slope, just had to run with it, head into the field and more accommodating terrain, broke a trail and punched through the snow bank to get onto the lane, then in the pile at the end of the road, normally I can push a slot through it, not today, front end hung up, pushed my way out with the loader. Not a friendly snow to clear, funny how they are all different, just like the flakes. This old tractor sure earned its keep today, but I have to admit, the walk behind blower really saved the day.
Now its time to sit by the stove, and contemplate what to make for dinner LOL !!!!

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
