Hadda layerdown Hoss, Gobbless. Clibbins are a year round thing.add grass clippings!
I've used a rattle gun for decades. Did you use air or electric? If using air, 1/2" hose and type V fittings give it tons more power and speed. In this house, I put in a 3/4" reel with a regulator at the end and use a short 1/2" stinger.Shovelled off the car, then the driveway and then installed the winter tires in the drive way.
For the first time ever I did this job with a rattle gun. Oh My that's nice.
