S&M Trucking is moving!!??

[Supermario]

I was thinking, we need a tractor, like Travis big bud or the ford fw60 and build some kind of tow behind rake attachment with a rotating spiral drum like an auger to gather the leaves into windrows for easier pick up?

my uncle had one of these on the farm. I wonder if this would work with leaves??

I like the look of the small version Neil thanks. I realize it's possible to scale down a Rc sized version of these but then it hit me... I can't scale down the huge maple leafs I'm trying to rake lol
I'm thinking a blower type for sure. A cheap Wal mart blower strapped to a flat bed trailer perhaps

It's done! it's over! After 5 straight days of moving and cleaning and minus 22 Celsius wind chill for 2 of those days, we are now in our new home and gone from the old.
I've moved many times in my life but this was my first time moving as a 40 something and let me tell you..... I can't do this many more times! my entire body aches
My wonderful wife has already allowed me to set up a Rc area and will post pics soon but for now, I have many boxes to unpack before play time can commence again!

I heard that!!! I'm struggling to do the interior of my workshop right now... it seems like just yesteryear that kind of work was a snap!

I'm looking forward to seeing pics of your new shop.
