Well, win nothing except perhaps some bragging rights.....

Now anyone - or at least anyone with two fingers - can chop wood against some of our top Forum members!

See and play the new game at:

Enjoy, this is my little holiday gift to our readers....(or at least one of them).......

I burn, therefore I am

Your tightly knotted yearning to split free,
The wretched uglies of your teeming score.
Send these, the stoveless, tempest-tost to me,
I light my fire beside the Jotul door!”

JP. did you invent that thing? It is cool....

Additional features possible.....
a hand crank and gear system for more traction and less pushing (unit moves slower but with more torque)
a pedaling attachment with gearing

No, my cousin did. I’m just trying to help him out by spreading the word.
The skinny tire wouldn’t provide enough traction as a drive wheel I don’t think, not to mention the extra engineering and materials would drive the cost up to that of a small snow blower. Frankly I think he needs to get the cost down, but it does work well. Takes a little practice at first. The technique is to push a little and fill the blade, then push down quickly on the handle which throws the snow. Much easier on the back than regular shoveling.
