LMFAO Too funny Kevin.
Don't go with 3/8. Might slow it down some. Lose speed. [emoji1787]

The newer Flexible Flyer was my older Daughter's. Still has the labels on it, etc, and still has red paint on the runners that I think slow it down.

It is also not as tall a mine, but that should not matter in only 1" of snow.

I'm not sure how old I was when I got that sled, but I'm guessing about 5. It has been used and abused but has held up remarkably well and the Grandkids still fight over who gets to use it!

The new wave plastic sled just does not glide out on the flat part of the ball field like the sled with the runners. (We were sledding at a ball field, go down the slope for the stands, and across the field to the HR fence (almost).

Test ran the Craftsman snowblower I got running for my buddy. Did excellent. Going out in another hour or so to clean up the driveway again. Supposed to get 10-18" here.

Yup plus my driveway was a bit slick at the bottom and I almost took a digger a few times.

I did mine twice this afternoon. Tomorrow I'll do the final cleanup and get the car dug out. I'm cold and my shoulders hurt.

Got my trailer out of the side yard into the driveway. Got it shoveled off. New Escape did awesome in the snow, turned the traction control off and it pulled it right out. Had 1 snowblower picked up this evening that I repaired and I'm picking 3 up Saturday afternoon to repair.

Lady who cuts my hair told me last Saturday as I was getting my hair cut that her husband bought a new snowblower and that he wanted to get rid of his old one, it just needs belts so he's delivering it to me Monday for $120. Ariens 724, just needs belts.

Finally got the new carb for a generator I took in last weekend.

Dolmar PS-7900 & 36" B&C action today, took a gnarly turkey oak log apart.
Split the rounds with my Dragon Slayer too, knotty stuff but no noodling needed.

Unfortunately my PS-7900's oiler took a dump, oil came gushing from under the clutch, not a drop into the bar.
Most likely the notorious hose that causes leaks on this saw family - my 7900 still has the factory pump and hoses.
I will have to look into it.

Pictures of the action tomorrow.

Tested yesterday's snowblower repair. Toro Power Clear 210R 21" single stage two stroke. Love that 2 stroke sound and smell! Echo Red Armor oil has a nice smell to it, and the Briggs loved it at 40:1.

Thanks Jeff. This one was a lot easier to maneuver then the 21" four stroke one. Wheels didn't suck either.

Delivered the Yard Machines 8/26 after work, customer was very happy to have it back.

Replaced the impeller belt on my Ariens 724, it blows very good now. I'll get some video tomorrow. Also ordered the traction belt and picked up some spare shear bolts.
