I went out to plow snow this afternoon, and my ATV is messed up. This is when I wish my garage was heated. It needs a new belt or a sensor, or maybe both. All I know is I am not turning wrenches in sub zero weather. It's supposed to be mid 40's next week....Maybe I can convince myself then. I just hope we don't get snow before it's fixed!!

Freaking belt is $100 and the sensor is $400....Crazy!! It would probably be a $1,000 repair at the shop.

I've used both. Depends on the space and how drafty it is. But the forced air ones really move some heat. Just make sure nothing is in front of it.

Problem is my garage is 30' x 40' with 10' ceilings....I could take it down to my buddys place...He has a heated 1 car garage, and he's only 5 minutes away...That would be the smart plan probably...Might take a few days if I need parts though, but he'll park outside.

Hang plastic to section a space off. Mine is roughly 30' x 40' two story. Years ago I put plastic sheets as walls in the stairwell so it wouldn't let the heat up. The little forced air one does take that edge off.


Parts might be a problem now though. Some stuff is available and I had some on backorder for months.

Yeah I still have my trusty old snowblower too.....it works and if it's really deep it's perfect.....but damn I hated walking 2mph for a few inches of snow lol

One year I was on my way home from work and it was snowing like a mofo.....great ski day....but I knew what I was in for. So I stopped at the liquor store to grab something. I saw my buddy....said whatever you want I'll buy....just get me in my driveway. It was deep even my jeep wouldn't have gotten through the snowbank. He had a hard time in a 350 and a V plow. I'd love to get a big truck but I don't need it for much else and those fuckers are not cheap. Damn I'm high....Paul got me dabbing again :eyesmoke:

Yeah I forgot I have a buddy who does commercial plowing and he use to have a customer right up the road...And he loves weed, so the wheels are churning. :lol:

Dabs you say??? I may join you. I'm trying to work up an appetite...Still haven't eaten dinner.

Anyone watching the new season of Ozark?? I watched the first one so far. Seems juicy!

Fuck i had it all typed out just to erase it. Long story short. Shower beer. Mcdonalds breakfast. wide turn out parking lot to avoid pothole. Almost home. Pulled over female trainee cop with trainer cop. She has me do the walk. 7 steps heel to toe. I do it she goes i said 9. I said no you didnt you said 7. Dude cop checks the cameras and lets me go, i asked him if it was her first day on the job, he shrugged his shoulders. She walked up and said that is highly disrespectful! Not my fault you fucked up more than i did. I didnt say that out loud

That's beautiful ice under there. Should make some good booming when the pressure ridges start cracking in the sun. I love that sound.

The whole lake was like glass, and then a mo-foing storm with snow hit followed by a very warm day....it was so heavy I could hardly move it before the slushy rough surface froze. The sounds are phenomenal....rifle shots , cracking , sheets off ice collideing...moans and groans...orgasmic!
