What happens here

The group concludes by reiterating their extreme dissatisfaction with the SnowEx spreader. They state that it represents their worst investment in salt equipment, costing $800. They discuss the unsuitability of drop spreaders for their needs, which require a wider spread, especially when using coarse rock salt. The presenters encourage viewers to share their own worst equipment investments, implying they are looking for a better alternative.

Goal: Summarize the major flaws of the SnowEx spreader and invite audience input on alternative solutions.

what are you what are you experiencing you got to to get to anything got sh it all the time I see you doing that all the time it it just puts a little Sal Bridge so it needs a little unless we didn't get a certain Otter Part that comes with it it's just that little cter key doesn't agitate it enough when you put the salt in there and you fill the thing up salt is angular so it kind of packs down so when the little spinner is going it creates a cone like that so then it looks like it's full but right around that little spinner there's nothing falling in because our little tiny baby cotter pin isn't doing anything and and we put a bigger cotter pin in there and all it did was just plastic gears inside of there it just grinded them and you Luke you were just working on it when I came in you had this thing all pulled apart and we've had the most the least amount of snow we've ever had since 1931 31 yeah 1931 so this thing has not been used and abused and and beat the heck it's been used five times maybe I was going to say four or five times a handful of times at best free wheeling all right so here's the deal Tim and Alex are sorry Tim and Alex are going to build their own because they're that torqued off about this thing I think they're price gouging on these and I think they're pieces of junk yep and I think we could easily combat and come back with a price alternative spreader that has multiple options and variations to there that just make it more effective because that nobody wants to spend 800 bucks and nobody wants to carry around a 5 gallon bucket and cast Hand by or salt by hand you know so is it safe to say that that's the worst $800 we've ever spent on something like that is that also safe to say it's one of the worst Investments that we've made for salt equipment yeah okay I would say so I I mean I'm looking at going through everything that we' got all of our spreaders all of our plows our pull plows our back plows I I would think that this kind of tops the cake for the biggest disappointment we've ever had yeah I was excited about this one versus cuz I've gone through this is the second one of these type we went through and it just uh there's one we used last year that one was just yeah that's the first that's the first one no I got a blue one somewhere I don't know the chapen yeah yeah chap I thought that was the one one I thought this was the step for would be better we bought that one in the beginning of the Season it made it through three…
