        The issue with that one seems that you have bend so much - that is rough on the back.

          It was one of the videos on the page at the end of yours. I agree, and would put the handle up higher. But if the bar is high enough, it does look like less labor. I also saw one that someone had attached to a seat with pedals and 4 wheels.

            Should call @art_of_shred - He can fix it.

            If he wants to come and work for a warm room... I'd be game to have him down!

              I saw that one too.. Interesting idea.. but would it really work all that well on a slope - or would you slip and go sideways?

                It probably wouldn't work very well. You could just get one of these 😛

                  They have ones like that at some of the lakes up north when they freeze over. They use them to "groom" the snowmobile trails.

                      That has to be difficult to control.

                          I'm build a Software RAID 10 XenServer.. fun time.

                          Wish my brain would work with my fingers, and that my brain would just kick in.... I'm tired.

                            Now every city needs 20,000 of these.

                            I wonder what the management range is on these. Like how far can you drive them until they're out of remote range....

                            Obviously City WiFi would be key for something like this...

                                @johnhooks To plow their own drive ways of course

                                Or those streets that the city plows refuse to do...

                                  I wonder how much they invested in building that Roboplow.

                                  It is a pretty cool system.

                                    Probably as much as just buying a 4 wheeler with a plow. It was not cheap to design and machine those parts, even if they did it themselves.

                                        Ya, between the machining, the on board charging, motors that are quality enough to be able to fine control, it's got to be expensive.

                                            I really would love to go get my sandwich and have lunch, but the chatty kathys have taken over the break room... not sure why they have to eat lunch in there (nobody ever does it because there are no chairs). I didn't even have to look at the security cameras to know - they are really that loud.
