I've tried everybody within reach, but nobody carries tire chains any more!

Nobody in Texas carries them in house, but they are readily available
online.


The roads are 4" deep in glare ice, and snow is forecast for the next couple
of days.

It will start melting Saturday when it finally gets above freezing.


Plus another couple of weeks of Ice Age (global warming)

It's supposed to be above freezing during the day Saturday through
Tuesday.


Any advice on making a set of tire chains?

The ice on the roads will be gone before you can buy or build tire
chains.
