That sound when you know you oopsied!
It finally happened. I was setting up the scroll saw when i nudged the power coupler. Of course it fell to the floor and rolled under my shoe! CRACK! It's toast. At least i had another one on the Mark V. Took advantage of the free shipping again and ordered two, along with a few other items, of course! Oh well, happy birthday to me!
I do have an original 10er coupler, made of some rubberish substance, but i don't want to push my luck...

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them.

Re: That sound when you know you oopsied!
Well that is lead and follow!!! Now I will try and keep clean. At home she maybe the Alfa, in dancing you are the Alfa, so it maybe she has not learned her roll in dancing. My suggestion, take separate lessons, that is what we did. It is easier to take constructive instruction/criticism from a Pro, not a loved one when doing something new.ChrisNeilan wrote:They say the same thing where my wife and I just started dance lessons!ERLover wrote:I have one like that that came with my greenie, still works, just use it as a spare or on my shortie, since it is shorter then the modern style.ChrisNeilan wrote:Short?

Same dance routines, but my dance instructor was a woman that taught me to lead, and she showed me how my partner should follow.
Mean while, wifes instructor doing the vice versa, he lead and taught here how to follow, after a few of that, they through us together and a few awkward dances and there interactions, we got it together.
It is like you dont want to teach your wife how to drive manual tranny, you will just get into a argument, and carry it home, and into the bedroom.

I know the sound you are talking about!
I dropped a band saw knob on the concrete floor and broke it,,
The last fella had the thing for 1/4 century and was as good as new.
