I found a new way to shovel my side walk in 2min. And both my neighbors too. I'm on a 1/4 acre lot (wide), and am too old to shovel now....
Step one, place right hand 12.5" wide tires on side walk at beginning of side walk to be 'shoveled'
Step two, drive forward to end of section to be 'shoveled'
Step three, repeat 2-4 times while moving 6" to the side each time.
Worked awesome, but I forgot to take a picture. Tread marks even provided more traction for pedestrians. Never again will I shovel the side walk.
Caution: may not work on sidewalks with signage or fire hydrants, lol.

I'm back to shovelling. I did that last year after a dump of snow, once the rain hit they turned into long patches of ice! Lol
Thankfully I don't have a sidewalk, but if I did, I could see a little walk behind snow blower being almost worth it just for that.
I adapted the plow blade for my jd400 to fit on the kubota bucket.
Works way better, but is definitely not kind to the lawn if you go off the pavement...

I approve. Do this same thing every year, the woman and neighbours also are impressed by the flattening power of the cruiser I assume.
I used to live at the bottom of a private road with about eight houses on it. It was never plowed the hole time I lived there. One year when Victoria ran out of salt I threw some sand down.
The first big snowfall after I moved away they were scrambling to find a company to clear it.

Just picked up these Mac Torque Master extensions. Two were not included with this 4 piece set. 7/8 @ 140 and 21mm @ 80 lbs. I’m sure these will be handy.
It would be nice to also have the 140 lb one for the Duallys but I’d be inclined to check them with the torque wrench anyway and the extra 20 ft/lbs is probably less than a 1/4 turn.
100 ft/lbs seems decent for steel wheels on the Landcruiser. It’ll be better to use the torque extensions rather than just using the 2nd click on the SnapOn impact and then a torque wrench.
What torque do you use for your steel cruiser wheels? The FSM simply says “tight”.
Anyone have experience with the Mac Torque Master 1550 impact extensions (or equivalent)?
Any dirt bike riders here? I met the owner of Kong Lifts. He designed and built a unique all aluminum lifting device for
motorcycles on a receiver hitch. It works great. He had a prototype being welded by my friend Kory over the holidays as
my trailer was being finished up. Good guy, and something of high quality made right here in BC.

Old patina fence boards and a live edge dick shaped bar because women love phallic shaped anything. Rule of thumb, if you can sell it to a woman, the man will pay.

I bought and installed a used garage door a few years ago for the back of my shop.

Replace "guitars" with your obsession of choice. Cruisers seems a safe bet here.
Apparently there's a little selective logging going on out back.
I think it's a Hawthorne tree? Kindof s***ty and pokey tree whatever it is, so I don't mind them hauling it away.
Even cleared out the twinberry (?) bushes.
They took a little maple a couple years ago. Was pretty impressive how they bucked it into lengths and cleaned up the worksite
We have chicken wire around the trees we like now...
