I've been sharing my sears snow blower with the neighbor for selfish reasons, as a guy that makes a living buying and flipping cars at auction; he is very good at keep that puppy lubbed, oil changed and last night I came home to test out the impeller retrofit. Being the anal guy he is of course, he doubled up on the rubber, no self tappers, bolts and nylon nuts, slotted attachments so the rubber can be moved as it wears and cut and shaped perfectly. The Utube 15 minute job was a 3 hour one for him and OMG what a difference. Came home to find the usual plow job in front of the 3 car wide frontage on drive and what I normally would throw into the middle of the road, now goes clear over both lanes so I don't have to do the street too. I think it will also mean the end of snow, because that is usually what happens after a retro to address it, but that will work too; I'm so tired.

Braces on both knees and been on the ladder for 6 hours raking snow off roofs. This DOES suck.

No boat, back in the suds.

Will do Joe. Actually rode the ladder down yesterday. It just slid off the roof sideways. Luckily I landed in 5' of snow.
