OK now you reached semi pro level! That is so cool Pete.
So awesome!! When's the Nebraska Cornhusker version coming out? haha jk
That’s not just nice. It’s Minnesota nice!
Did you find a lot of slush build up on the towel? I built a smaller version and had to clear the towel almost every pass.
"IF" you do a version two, you can build your own box/tube frame, bring in some heavier components that could handle the weight and before you know it, you'll have built a Zamboni 🙂 I hope you got some solid snapshots of that "buckin' bronc"! Make great photo for your workspace.
Make custom goal light bruh
This whole thing is awesome. Huge fan of the rink and the zamboni and all of the projects you do.
I saw the amount of land you had in a previous video. If it were me, I'd do a golf course on it.
How much of the tank do you use for a full resurface? Close to the whole tank?
Pretty dope …
Thanks for the ideas 👍 great job.
Really nicely done
Wow, Macgyver is jealous!!
Go Bison!!!!!!! LOL! Love the rink my friend! Would love to play on it one of these days! My dream is to move to Montana.
Cool project and cooler friends.
That is a great looking zamboni! Awesome job!
Thank you for your amazing project for your community, it’s a awesome job you had made. I just love it, very beautiful zamboni you made. Thank you for sharing your amazing story. God bless you, your friends and family.
awesome work and good commenting your steps!
everything is good, but rotating light SUCKS !!! get old version with real rotating !!! big greetings from SERBIA !!!
Brilliant! Do all the fans throw snowballs at you when you roll by?
Honestly, I was expecting an axle to break under the additional load, not the frame…
Nice Project! Way to bounce back and staying positive from that frame bending in half, I would have been bent out of shape myself from that.
