Bonsoir Joe 😇👌👍 You modification are OUTSTANDING and work very well and Yes That Shear Pine Is A Very Nice feature and The Use Of Your Safety Belt Too 👍👌😇 Keep Warm Joe Cheers 🍻🍻
Thanks! Safety belt... hum. I wish that safety belt was like in the excavator, very quick to put. It's not easy at all to use. I shall look into that while I have all my teeth! Lol!
Works great Joe. Thought maybe it would travel side to side depending on how much snow it collected on the front left or right of the groomer. And able to back it up. Neat. Have a great day.
Thanks! Amazinly, it's not going to go sideways if that hits more snow on one side or the other. However, if the trails are sloped towards the side, it will drag it to the lower point.
Hi Joe, wonderful mod to an already great design. I like the fact that you can back up with it too! Wow, that trail looks smoother than some sections of QC HWY 20 I've driven lol
super. Quite a bit larger than the groomer I fabricated. I like the ability you have to raise the front. I would like to modify mine too. The shear pin is also a great idea.... because I did kiss my ATV windshield....lol. Still themost satisfying job on the woodlot. The trails have such a smooth ride in the winter
@@RCAFpolarexpress don't worry about it Dave...it was a gentle kiss. My groomer hit a stump and came to a sudden stop, throwing me forward. Luckily I just touched the plastic windshield. no injuries but it could have been bad. Imodified my groomer decrease the likelihood of it happening again
The groomer is in fact a pallet racking, 2 "ladders" side by side. So it's 84 inches wide by 10 ft long (grooming base, excluding tongue). I do remember your love story with your windshield, so I did that shear bolt with that in mind... Thanks!
Both have their specific utility. Roller to pack, especially the wet snow. Because it's hard to groom efficiently wet snow. Grooming wet snow compares to grading mud. And grooming powdery snow compares to grading sand. That is my own observation though. Rolling thick light snow is not as effective compared to deaerating the snow using the groomer. I also use the groomer to flatten the trails, so I can ride the side-by-side a good 15-20 mph with the log trailer. Thanks!

@@FromSteelToWood 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Maaan, do you think having a Air Bag 🤣🤣👍👍
@@RCAFpolarexpress humm... might be a good project to do!
@@FromSteelToWood 🤣👌👍
Another cool idea Joe, you’re an amazing fabricator 👍🏻, bonne semaine 👍🏻🙋🏼♂️🙂
Thanks Luc! Bonne semaine à toi aussi!
Passer la gratte comme ça le soir après une bordée de neige, c’est plus satisfaisant et apaisant que de faire du yoga 🤓
Oh que oui Michel! C'est même une belle période de méditation pour moi! Lol!
Good evening Joe, Great video. Love your ingenuity. Take care Ben
Thanks!
Yes I seen how it worked on that hump, looks like you accomplished what you wanted. Good work Joe, stay warm.
It does make the trails very smooth! Thanks!
@@FromSteelToWood Yes I agree I can see the difference. 👍👍
That works great Joe 😁👍good idea for the shear bolt. thanks for the video 🚜💨🍳
Thanks Mitch!
Very nice Joe. Very well thought through and very well designed.
Thanks! It work as planned!
Hello Joe,
Your engineering skills are amazing, the groomer looks amazing and no doubt works very well.
Thanks Paul!

Highway 20 reminds you why we end up having SO many SUVs in Québec. Lol! Back up is an excellent feature to have indeed! Thanks!
Thanks Joe, works great, I'll have to figure one up for grooming mud. Take care.
Lol! If you get a brilliant idea (like your bucking station), please make a video! I also have that need comes spring!

That worked great Joe! Have a good week! See ya!
Thanks John!
I like the modifications you have made and it was great to see it ride through that hump
Thanks Joseph!
Excellent modification with the boat winch. I need to do something similar to eliminate the igloo effect!
Especially with wet snow, that is a must! Thanks!
The new and improved groomer! It works well. Again maybe like your roller, a seat for passengers is required. Take care.
Beyond 6 passengers, that's a different driving liscence though... Thanks!
nice Joe that works great
Thanks!
👍👍👍
Thanks!
Do you like the groomer or roller better? Does the groomer work in wet snow where the roller is not as good?

@@FromSteelToWood Good explanation. Thank you! I have thoughts of something similar, but quite a distance in the future.
Ça travaille bien! Pas mal mieux qu’un vieux box spring en arrière d’un bayou 300cc 2 roues motrices🤣
Oui, c'est un peu plus gros aussi à 7 pieds de large par 10 pieds de long!

Yes! Thanks!
