How does a person let this happen and why?

Rest of the blowers in good running condition.
Ariens ST724

Just 20 minutes ago bought another older Ariens 1032 and a Snapper 1030.
Ad said the Snapper had a bad transmission. It's a friction drive like the
ones on their lawn mowers.  Hoping it might have an easy fix, we'll see.

Well I found another housing on Craigslist.  Looks like this blower will be back at work for someone come the first snow.

Looks almost new.  Nice work!

Your work got me inspired and thinking about restoring an old Toro Snow Hound.  I really like how these little things look.  It's small, doesn't take up much space, and fairly simple to work on.  My son is 6 years old and very mechanically curious.   When he's a little older, I might do it as a father and son project.
