Also interested on the Artix update!
Here is a short video not the greatest but have not had a chance to give this thing a workout this year. Not complaining though.

Not sure if this is the way to post a video link first time.

I am proud having Elise work for our company.
I posted comment on your youtube before I read this. I am impressed with her performance on operating JD tractor/inverted blower. She's good and fast. I noticed she's running it on half throttle unless she's using foot throttle pedal. I'm happy to see woman doing that kind of work. I hope my daughter want to work for me as a tractor operator when she's old enough! Lol.

here in Barrie Ontario, there is no noise by-law when it comes to snow removal, so we can blow snow using powerful equipment when ever we need to.

just curious, what kind of traction does that walker get if you had to blow thru piles of snow the city plows leave?

Thats because the film crew came out to film our interviews, but we were responsible to film ourselves plowing snow for the most part. I think some were able to time it right, but most weren't. I know when the film crew came to me last year, there was no snow.

Wow, my 157 sent emails suck balls in comparaison to your massive run. In my case, anxiety kicked-in last march...

Holy crap! That is insanity! You got to go digital and do emails or something. Who drew the short straw and had to lick all of the envelopes closed?

Do you do any automatic renewal policy? I was in the same shoes as you every winter spending hours upon hours stuffing and creating envelopes with contracts. A few years back we switched to all contracts having an automatic renewal policy. Each winter we send a generic letter to all clients reminding them the contracts are self renewing and pricing will remain the same at this time. We automatically renew unless we hear from them. We also tell them in the event of a price increase they will be notified in writing. It has worked out quite well for us. Just an idea but i am sure you probably have already considered this?

Hey Matt, that is a great idea, I was told it was illegal in Quebec. Then again I have other companies doing the same thing with me, so I will look into it again.
