    Not to "start" the snow blower.. but mostly in case I need to
    "repair" the snow blower..
    Learned my lesson a long time ago..
    (But actually it has been going for a while..
    single digit temps.. 52° in there)

    yep, a few basics. Shear pins and what not. I have a basic single head propane heater for times like this. It’s coming down something fierce.

    2+ bags a day going into the 52I. last night we were watching TV about 8:15 and the stove flame was real low. ?? oh, the feed light is on - no pellets, time to reload! 13 hours from full to empty.

    really liking those Vermonts!

    been working in the shop where it's nice and warm with the wood stove going.

    most of the body work is complete, need to cover the rest of the red paint the PO put on it so it can be painted IH Whitecap White. It was part of a promotion in the first quarter of 1950 where IH painted Cubs, super A's, and C's white to make them stand out at the dealership. they were demonstrated for the customer, and then repainted red before sale. kind of unique and stand out at a show. I have a white Cub as well.

    We ended up with a pallet of over priced Lignetics. First and last time unless we have an emergency. The pellets are super shiny and quite long, they bridge my augers. And they burn worse than any pellet we've tried. They don't burn to ash, they burn into little charcoaled pellets.
