djg0770 481 Posted January 26, 2015 Yeah, and the surface of the sun is 6,000° but at least it's a dry heat No, it's just easier on the machine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mipafox 438 Posted January 26, 2015 No, it's just easier on the machine.The joke was that it won't matter with 3 feet of snow, just like it won't matter with 6000°. That's not precisely true, but it's a funny. Ha ha. Get the cherry syrup water ice sprayers loaded on the NJSP helicopters! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

302w 83 Posted January 26, 2015 tested it out on the last storm. 20 minutes to plow out my driveway of 4" if that heavy stuff. bring it on for the fluffy stuff. LOL, I have never seen that before. If it works, good for you. I've never seen a plow on anything unibody. Is that FWD bias AWD or a true 4x4 with RWD bias and a transfercase? BTW, I haven't had to mess with fixing a snowblower other than broken pull ropes, but couldn't you rig a broken shear pin by using a bolt instead? I know you can cause hellatious damage if you pick up something but I imagine it would work in a pinch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vlad G 345 Posted January 26, 2015 Given the apocalyptic nature of this Storm, how can I assure survival of my firearms ? </duck> Run to the store, buy milk, eggs and bread. Then during to storm make as much french toast as possible, and wrap your guns in said french toast. Make sure to fully cover any exposed metal or wood, the plastic bits should be ok. The french toast will create a protective barrier, even better then Frog Lube. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
