And to think - I wanted to put my Pressure Washer motor on it at first . -



Glad I decided against it - Actually , I couldn't get it to fit without extending the frame.

BTW - That's 13 Horse Honda Motor. I prolly would have cleared all the asphalt off my drive with that sucker - My Big A$$ 14' shop door would have been on the ground

Next time I run into a problem and I am frustrated, just remind me of this story and it will change my frustration into a good laugh. Stinks about the garage door tho.
Sorry man, still

Yea , I started hoofin it, -attempted to catch up. Damn thing kept going faster faster . I gave up and stood there and just watched it, after the effort seemed fruitless . It was heading for the fence at first, but it started to curve after hitting a little mother fricken pine cone and b-lined for the door. What luck ehh.

- Yea , it only does that when I blow from the front. If I close the front chute and just blow from the side it stays put.

What sucks is when I somewhat cornered and the leaves come back at me. I'm in like a leave Tornado - then all the leaves stick to the front screen and blocks the air. The engine over revs so high it doesn't want to shut down - I had to pull the wire of the plug so she wouldn't blow up !! That felt good !! Shocked the sh^t out of myself .
