Re: 10ER speed changer repair

About that mounting bolt/set screw, I never even use it. The belts are enough to keep the speed changer in place. I push, (to the right) on the speed changer, and the headstock.

Re: Harbor Freight Dust Collector?

That is because the motor speeds up. Why? Because you have removed the load on the motor. No air going through the blower (the...

Why do your yards look like the inside of my freezer?

Funny thing, the store I used to work at, has sold snow

Re: Trump Tax Cut

WOW. It's time to withdraw from this discussion. Name calling and inaccurate assertions will not take us where we want to go. Adios.
