If Pastor John had a 1949 Case sc strategically placed; say in Brooklyn Iowa, and 3" of snow fell over a 6 hour period, with 15 mile head wind, how long would it take him to clear a church parking lot 40" x20"? Also factoring in clearing the Pastors significant others driveway 10"x35" first?
Hypothetically speaking, if he had a loader attached to said SC? |

I would say about 1 minute since each of those lots is so small he could clear it with one bucket width easily.

14 minutes 3 seconds, not factoring in fueling time. +/- of course |

A small parking lot it should be easy to clean off with a tractor in 10 to 15 minutes if it was just snow and not ice. |

I think its a web site problem that changes feet marks to inches. I've had that happen before. |

Chuck, with those dimensions does PastorJohn run a biker church? That would be the only thing that might fit in the lot or drive down those drive ways. (<:

I agree with Zach because " is inches, ' is feet.
40 inches x 20 inches x 3 inches deep should be four to six scoop with a snow shovel or grain scoop. 10 inches x 35 inches x 3 inches deep souuld be 3 or 4 scoops.
That leaves more time to clean the snow off the tractor and have some fun with it. |

Does this hypothetical time estimate include time asking for forgiveness for language used while trying to start said SC in the cold? |

Well guys the SC isn't coming out because its 4 miles from the house and it has no heathouser!
We are experiencing 40 mile per hour winds with whiteout conditions. I think we got about 8 inches of snow last night.
Mom should have let little brother come out of the house more often to do chores in the elements.
He probably wouldn't be talking hypothetically! |

Great knowledge was gained by watching you from the warmth of the front living room window,but when you went off to serve our country ,Dad snatched me by the collar and said ,lets see if this one can get it right! And thats how I remember it. |

Since you have it scaled down into inches, perhaps you could hypothetically figure out how long would take using a toy model SC tractor. |
