July snow plowing. Interesting, is that something i can do to gain points.
Like, can i 'plow' my driveway all summer long, will the snow not fall on it in during the winter?
We just got 11 inches of super wet stuff on Friday. First time Tug couldn't push as i run down the center of driveway and work my way out. Each pass is pushing the accumulated snow. It just got too heavy, kept pushing the front.
When the Cub can't push...get out the Bear. Picture is 4 days after the snowfall.

Tug's nose is sporting a very old Mack Truck Dog. I found it when walking home from school some 50 years ago. It stayed with me all these years. When I got Tug, it had no nose piece. After many years of sitting in my Sock drawer to Junk Draw to Tool boxes, the Dog just seemed right at home there.cool blade on the Bear, but Tug is still better looking. is that Pooh bear on Tug’s nose? we’ll be lucky to get 11” cumulative all winter in KC.
The plow is a V plow. Made by Virnig. Each side of it can angle at any angle independently. Including both sides angled forward as a scoop. That tractor has a seperate lever for the auxilary front hydraulics. Even with homemade large skids, still gotta Man the FEL lever to keep from tearing up the stone driveway. Until we finally get a deep freeze and build up an inch or two of frozen snow as a base.
