Just because I'm curious and you answer comments; can you click, let's say on my name, and see how long I've been subscribed and what videos I watch? I'm not sure what all you can see on your side
Greetings from Marilla. I really want a tractor but watching this video I don’t think I could manage driving backwards to clear snow. Keep safe and warm
Over here, about 2 1/2 hrs east of you, last week I used the tractor(open cab) bucket for snow moving as I was home all week. I really needed the tractor therapy. Today I fired up my 25 yr old P/U to punch the ends of my driveways as it has heat. LOL
I personally like shop videos more but gotta switch it up once and awhile with content. It’s like hanging out with a buddy. Thanks for doing what you do
I have an open station tractor as well, try to blow with the wind but still get some snow in my face. That’s still an awesome machine to own. Just one note, I noticed that you have at times lift the blower quite high while the PTO is still engaged something I myself try Not to do to prevent unnecessary strain on the shaft and U joints. I see the wheel kit that you engineered is working out well, and that has been in my plans for a couple of years now. Great video. Aaron from Eastern Canada.
It was a very windy day, and seemed no matter which way I blew the snow, it found its way to my face...youll have days like that for sure. Youre not wrong about lifting the blower too high, probably something I should be more aware of...but that being said U Joints are cheap, and only take a couple minutes to swap out.
BX is more of a lawn mower with a loader on it, but they are still very capable. You should check out Biffs equipment. Pretty sure he has a BX that he does a lot of big boy jobs with!
I have an open cab and snowblower implement too. The snow drifts sure test my patience, but that doesnt mean it's quitting time. Not sure why people bother with the hateful comments when you're doing a good deed.
@@EverythingElliott we encountered some people that would treat us like this. Our City was struck by one of the 26 tornados last year. That was an emergency. My company went out and “helped” the people. We put our work on the back burner for 9days while we hauled out, and bucked up trees. A snow emergency, isn’t quite the same. We all know winter is coming. And if no one prepares for that it isn’t everyone else’s fault. So many people that refuse to pay a seasonal price,who prefer to shovel tried to find someone to take care of their driveway. Only to find we were booked up and refusing to service them as a “one off” In the middle of the storm our focus is servicing our exclusive list. If you want to be serviced now, the only way was to get on the list. Once the storm was completely over then we started digging others out. But like you we used similar pricing structures to be fair. I was told I was too expensive by some. I told them, imagine yourself shoveling your driveway, how long do you think that will take you? 10hrs? Multiply that by 10 it’s 100$ then reminded them that their time is worth more than $10/hr so they are getting a deal. The people that called and “pushed back hard” would tell me that they couldn’t get anyone, no one would answer the phone, or that the plow had tried and failed and they had no other options. I told them to call me back when they were ready. After some reflection and realization, they would call back and I would dig them out. The storm brought out all of the guys that were willing to “shovel for $10” and people to plow for $20-40. It wasn’t reasonable. And people held to that. We were called to help so many that their provider pushed the snow up to the front doors, or the garage door, some of the doors were totally pushed right in. The company’s that plow professionally did well, but some of the people that just slap on a plow, are just not helpful. The storm was a crucible for those legitimately working. I pulled out 24” in the same driveways multiple times with in hours of having been there so many times. I applaud your effort to work out in your local area, and I’m glad you bill for your effort. Keep up your content.
Elliott don't worry about those people that bagel you out. I like to see them brave the snow helping out other people, I like to see what they would charge. I think you doing a fantastic job, keep up the good work keep the videos coming .By the way I live in Sydney Australia we don't get any snow here, but I can only imagine what it would be like for you there..
I appreciate the encouragement! Awesome to see people from other counties watching my videos, especially when you wont ever have the opportunity to do any snowremoval!
Good old WNY snow. I lived 51 years of my life in NY and enjoyed the big snow. Loved plowing it. Was the first thing I did when I returned from Vietnam. Had one of those 15" days. Don't get that kind of snow here in Central Michigan. Love that snow blower. Makes short work of things
Your doing good things helping others there needs to be more of that in this world. Side note as a temporary shield put a piece of plexi on your headache rack might work???
My buddy just fabbed a cab. it is amazing how well it worked.. He put a small in line heater in it with a blower for the windows. wiper on back and front window. He can unbolt it and lift off for the summer, Go for it. Nice project to have on the Utube . FYI a curtis cab is probably 5-7K
I can't find a commercially available hard cab for a Kubota L4701, so if you know of one, send it along. I've checked with all the major manufacturers. I did find one out of Italy, but I'm sure the shipping would make it very cost prohibitive. They make a soft sided cab, but I don't want one of those flimsy cabs flopping around.
Get yourself a full face snowmobile helmet and use that while snow blowing with your tractor. It will keep you warm and you won't have any issues with snow blowing back in your face.
I can't justify a new tractor, and they don't make a commercially available tractor cab for my tractor. Either buying a new tractor, or making my own cab are my only options, and since I'm not buying a new tractor...I think we all know what needs to happen.
Excellent EE.. good job mate.. nothing will change peoples perspective.. Haters gunna Hate.. usually Keyboard warriors with no intentions or incline to every get off their ass to HELP anyone.. and ye .. Everyone has n opinion .. Keep doing what your doin, Being an Australian in our Summer of over 40 degrees.. or over 103 F snow is fascinating to me .. thanks for sharing and YES, I would like to see your enclosed cab fabrication .. Stay hard and have a beer to celebrate
I hear you. There's a certain type of person that just likes to complain about stuff. I'm in the planning stages of that cab, it's a long process, however, its underway!
Original Cub Tractor with a cab? or an Original tractor Cab (the company)? I don't want a soft sided cab, I would prefer a hard side, which I can't find one that is commercially available for the Kubota L4701
That snow blower makes quick work of moving snow. Idk why we in the USA do not use front pto & 3pt like other countries . That would make that job not so much of a pain in the neck .
So I’ve been looking into that, because it should be a thing! Fendt was recently introduced Into the states with a factory option of a front PTO. Something to seriously consider…
Apologize, I haven’t watched alllof your videos. Have you ever looked into an inverted blower? I think that would be quite helpful on your property as well as others
I have looked at them, never tried one. One major fault of the inverted as far as I can tell is with the storms we get, it’s often that I’ll Find a 5’ wall of heavy pack snow at the road from the county plows. I would need to dig that out with the loader because the tractor wouldn’t be able to drive through it. With my blower I can just back right into it and make it disappear.
@@EverythingElliott you have a smaller machine than I do, I understand the point. We just went through an 80” event here and we had all sorts of snow coming out everywhere. Anyways our tractors worked well. We use what we like to call the PAC man method. Pull up as high as you can back up as far as you can, engage and get rid of it. Keep doing it till you have gotten through it. Now there will be some that say that’s not efficient. And compared to the rear facing in that exact moment they aren’t wrong. But the inverted is so efficient that it is miles ahead of the other for completion time. Additionally working around the vehicles would be much simpler and you can stay out of “some of the snow” that blows around from the plume. They do make units for your size machine. I would strongly encourage at least getting some seat time on one, it will help you understand so much. I know exactly what it’s like, and I’ve had all sorts of “reasons why it doesn’t work” pointed out to me, my friends and colleagues. But at the end of the day it’s amazing. If you come by Rome in the middle of winter look me up. You can check out mine. I have a couple here.
ua-cam.com/video/k24O1TLJsB8/v-deo.htmlsi=9cTSTodXCTk6bI15 Here is the first machine with my first inverted blower. That video was a 21” storm. That machine went thought 3’ banks. If I couldn’t get by with just the blower I would pull it back in a couple seconds and then let the blower go to town. That is a 27hp tractor. So limited for sure.
ua-cam.com/video/UehlmezPuCU/v-deo.htmlsi=Vt14qbkwpsfB9-cM Just recorded this the other day, it’s on my buddies UA-cam. In the beginning is the packman method in use.

I like snow plowing videos. Its relaxing. I search for plowing videos so... And you are easy to watch/listen to. Great channel.
Appreciate it, I'm glad you like the channel! I’ve got a super interesting one coming up! Stay tuned!

I can see that you’re subscribed, not for how long and can’t see what videos you’ve watched, I can see what videos of mine you’ve commented on though
I know I enjoy watching snow videos. Hell, that how I found you. GO BILLS
Go Bills! Big game this weekend!
@@EverythingElliott Heck Yeah Man
Greetings from Marilla. I really want a tractor but watching this video I don’t think I could manage driving backwards to clear snow. Keep safe and warm
You could always get a front mount blower. Smaller tractors have mid mount PTOs that you can run a front blower off
I'd say your just having fun - LOL. Keep helping as you like. Stay safe.
70% fun, 30% work!
Over here, about 2 1/2 hrs east of you, last week I used the tractor(open cab) bucket for snow moving as I was home all week. I really needed the tractor therapy. Today I fired up my 25 yr old P/U to punch the ends of my driveways as it has heat. LOL
That sounds like you're making good use of your equipment!
I personally like shop videos more but gotta switch it up once and awhile with content. It’s like hanging out with a buddy. Thanks for doing what you do
Well...If I end up building the cab for my tractor, there will be plenty of "in the shop" videos. Thanks for sticking around!
All you need now is for HLA to send you a new snow pusher to try out on the front of your tractor 😉😉
Wouldn't that be something! If you know someone over there, tell them to send one along haha
You can keep the snow!! I did just get a new snow removal piece of equipment myself.
Snow beats out a lot of the other natural disasters in this country!
I enjoyed watching the snow from Florida 58°! What ever you have going on Elliott I like!
I'll certainly keep my snow over those hurricanes you guys get!

Elliott every video is great crazy weather in upstate ny we have nothing in NH to talk about good luck
That's surprising. You guys usually do fairly well for yourself up there!
yes show it all
Thanks for watching!
I am jealous of your tractor; my BX 2350 is too small. Loved the video!
BX is more of a lawn mower with a loader on it, but they are still very capable. You should check out Biffs equipment. Pretty sure he has a BX that he does a lot of big boy jobs with!

People couldn't believe I would charge money for my time, effort, and equipment, and thought I should be doing it for free...

It’s been two years now, Elliot, I was hoping you would have a cab on the Kabota for us by now..😳😳😳😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I may or may not be in the planning stages of that cab. If things go according to plan. This will be my last cold winter!

I thought of that, but I was concerned snow would build up on it and it would become more of a hindrance than anything
@@EverythingElliott plus it probably wouldn't hold up to extreme cold and vibrations just a thought like your video .
Don’t pay no mind to the haters Elliot
Hate me cuz they ain’t me…or some sly comment like that.
My buddy just fabbed a cab. it is amazing how well it worked.. He put a small in line heater in it with a blower for the windows. wiper on back and front window. He can unbolt it and lift off for the summer, Go for it. Nice project to have on the Utube . FYI a curtis cab is probably 5-7K

Sure was chilly
@ I love your thumbnail on that
Snow blower is the answer. An Original cub might be in your price range. Hot water heater and a front mount blower. You'll be in tall cotton.

I live in colden ny and i have a l2501 open tractor.gonna be building a cab come summer
You are about 10 minutes from me, well depending what side of colden you live on. I’m going to start building mine pretty soon.
Colden boston border last house in colden
@@doughaentges3898 alright so 15 minutes...Interested to see what you do for your cab
Good video, I like your variety 👍 It is called "Everything" Elliot 🤷
Gotta keep people on their toes. Never know what to expect!
How are those wheels working on the blower?
They work like an absolute dream! I haven't had a single issue with them, and love the adjustability
You may not find you need a full cab. A roof and plexiglass on the front and back makes a big difference.
I thought about that, but I think without some form of heat on the glass, the snow would just build up on it causing 0 visibility
@ it doesn’t really stick because the glass isn’t heated. Dad’s done it that way for 20 years in a L3010. I was skeptical at first.

Luv your videos. Cac n you do one on diesel fuel mixtures? Thanks Rembrandt iowa
What do you mean by diesel fuel mixtures?
I wouldn’t be putting my hands or any part of my body into that snowblower with the tractor running
Gotta shake hands with danger.
You could wear a ski mask or something like lol.
