I own a BWM, (Barfoots welding and machine works), 52" 2 stage snowthrower. I was just wondering if anyone knows if this company is still in busness or if replacement parts are available. It's a very heavy built snowthrower I belive it was built in canada. Thanks for any info......... Dave

A Canadian welding shop also made my blower. Maybe it's a Canadian specialty.
I think these companies are fabricators and don't supply much sales and service support whether they're in business or not. Compared to brand name implements, the price is pretty good, since the company doesn't have to maintain customer support, parts inventories, dealer networks etc. The downside is that there is nobody to call up and say: 'I need a part number such and such.'
The bright side is that fabricators usually don't make the mechanical parts. I think they mostly order ready-made parts from OEM catalogues. I haven't had to try yet, but I think most anybody familiar with this type of fabrication should be able to find replacement mechanical parts
