Thought i would share this

Hello all, if this is the wrong area for this, I apologize could not really find one more appropriate.

Over on a motorcycle board I frequent there is thread ongoing about setting up your tent etc. in the least amount of time being the season of PMS (parked motorcycle syndrome). I to am suffering from this ailment so I thought I would help spread the word and entertain myself with the production of this video setting up my "etc." my Blackbird under less than ideal conditions.

4 min of time to waste two parts, 2 min of prep, 2 min of actual Hammock related stuff.

11 degrees and I am already tired of winter, I just wanted to see some grass

Maybe not the first.

Let me clear that up a bit

Maybe not the first

As it was made for that thread on st-owners (the motorcycle forum ) and there was a lot of chatter about bad weather, frozen ground etc. but no videos I added that header to try to get the ball rolling over their, certainly never meant to imply with the intro that it was the first timed video doing this,

Also wanted to get some practice in with a newly acquired video editor.

But your not including the time it took you to blow off the snow?

Nice music choice for the instroduction, Last of the Mohicans has remained one my favorite movies since its release. Nice little video. How long DID it take you to blow the snow?

How long DID it take you to blow the snow

Maybe 8 or 9 min after I got the thing fueled up running and strapped on, also cleared the drive much to the amusement of my neighbors, beats a snow shovel

It's gotta be really cold, or the air is too warm coming out of the blower and just melts the snow to slush...trust me on this one. Science is based on failure!

Your good. We don't have a Snow Blower Subforum. I have to agree with YeahIdIDThat on the choice of music for your intro. Every now and then I hit youtube and watch the final scene of Last of the Mohicans just to hear the Melody.

That is how we clear sidewalks and driveways in a neighborhood we have a contract for. Looks like a redmax 7500 - nice blower! I'm about to strap one on for the day. Fast setup... I'd still be untangling ropes after 2 minutes!

I agree on the music choice also.

Why did you have to blow the snow away to hang your hammock
