This reminds me that I need to get a snow shovel. Just got my first house and was so excited to buy a mower. I don't think I am as excited about a shovel though...Winter recovery gear, a.k.a. a shovel!

I like a cheap plastic shovel with a straight handle. I tried the bent handle ones but found it aggravated my herniated and degenerated discs more than a straight one. I also like a flat aluminum shovel for busting up icy spots. A cheapo plastic shovel (with wood handle) lats a few seasons and the plastic blade will start to ear down.This reminds me that I need to get a snow shovel.

And giant congratulations on your house! That's what it's all about and I hope it gives you many years of happiness and great memories.This reminds me that I need to get a snow shovel. Just got my first house and was so excited to buy a mower. I don't think I am as excited about a shovel though...
Yes but does it have a damper and did you use 303 on it?Of course, now that I'm a @AzScorpion graphene & damper fancy boy, I did just buy an electric Toro E24:

I got 3 years of roadside assistance and a cell phone. Too cold up here to deal with a shovel and no heated steering wheel to defrost the frozen fingers ?.Winter recovery gear, a.k.a. a shovel!
A schmancy-pants snow shovel to dig myself, and maybe others, out of a wintry mess.
This "avalanche" shovel looks to be nicely put together.

David, make sure you Graphene the chute on it. It'll help keep that heavy wet snow from sticking to it.I like a cheap plastic shovel with a straight handle.

Pam Spray is much better at preventing sticky snow from sticking. Spray it on the blade, blade cover, chute. (Sorry Dave, but it is...ask me how I know)David, make sure you Graphene the chute on it. It'll help keep that heavy wet snow from sticking to it.![]()
Shush you!! Need al the sales I can get with the holidays coming and all this inflation! ????Pam Spray is much better at preventing sticky snow from sticking. Spray it on the blade, blade cover, chute. (Sorry Dave, but it is...ask me how I know)
We can still use the 303 Graphene to give the outside a good coating !!!Shush you!! Need al the sales I can get with the holidays coming and all this inflation! ????
What did I received in the mail today? Well, in my email, I received an offer from my Ford dealer to "upgrade" from my 2021 Tremor, that only has 7K miles, which I financed at 2% interest for 72 months, to a 2022 Lariat at 8.9% for 78 months. It will only cost me $97 more per month!
What a deal! I only have to pay $11,484 more over the life of the loan for a regular 4x4 Lariat!

In the Facebook detailing groups there are people who actually do detail tractors...We can still use the 303 Graphene to give the outside a good coating !!!
And of course, 303 Protectant on the tires and grips !!!
Actually, I had a neighbour who used to spray his chute with WD-40. I have no idea if it worked or not. ?‍David, make sure you Graphene the chute on it. It'll help keep that heavy wet snow from sticking to it.![]()
Graphene your boots also to keep them shiny and snow free while you are shoveling or blowing. Maybe a little graphene on your hands to avoid blisters also. Don't forget to coat the neighbors blowers and shovels to make snow control fun again. Sounds like AzScorpion needs moving money ?David, make sure you Graphene the chute on it.
