"When I opened the box there was a different MC in it, I assume the one he took off his car."
Imagine that. That's exactly the kind of crap that will happen on ebay motors more so often than other areas. They were trying to pull a fast one on you and treat you as if you were Carquest etc.

Opinions are a big problem these days. Esp if yours goes against what the 'man' tells you it is. Up and to the point of arrest and prison time. If not worse.

Having dealt with ebay off and on since the beanie baby days i'd like to report that there is still no shortage of complete morons. Some of them are just plain stupid, others are illiterate, some think that 2+2=jello. By far the biggest group of idiots hang out on ebay motors. I avoid that category at all costs......and you should too. Not sure if it's just that all the motorheads are belligerent alcoholics or have too much sweat in their eyes to see what they are reading or are bipolar or what. At any rate never ceases to amaze me and I shouldn't be surprised at all. Anyhows I suppose my manly hormones are a little elevated just coming in from lifting weights and then watch some TARD jump in on a $500 auction right at the last minute and immediately email me afterwards saying he made a mistake? ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) ?? Unfort for him his phone number was included in the check out info and I just got done reaming him a new one I am no mood to deal with DUH right now. I have had numerous conversations with previous bidders then this idiot comes out of left field and just shits all over everyone. He ended up hanging up couldn't get a word in edgewise.

Kinda stoopid to be making predictions of such magnitude in such a verifiable amount of time. ![](http://extremecentre.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Al-Gore-in-Carbonite.jpg) I don't really like the carbonite thing as what's inside can be brought back to life.

Keep cutting at 20" per hour. Watch what happens.

No big deal at least you have the main part of the machine built. Kinda like the Star Diamond grinder I just picked up has a pan that extends up in front of the wheels I may end up cutting it off and building a whole new pan I hate restrictions.

Wow. Thanks for the info. So what was the motive for this? Didn't want desperate people in a emergency to have a gun or what? Sounds like the same stupid jerks in the US. They use all the excuses they can. So in other words they used the search as an excuse to find victims as the video says. Sad. And anyone thinking they got rid of the register is fooling themselves.
Ok......I gota go for now lol. Big weekend ahead. No offense........but im glad to see it happening elsewhere so we may have some sort of chance to show what happens.

The elite globalists in the US can stick their NWO gun ban up their asses. It will never work, too many of us will be up in arms over this. Everyone knows what these jackasses are up to. I still think we need to build a giant space ship and load them all in it and we can take that little bitch Piers Morgan and strip him down to nothing but a jock strap and duct tape him to the nose cone and we'll launch this pile putrid straight into the sun. Of course we might aim at a further distant star because that would be the biggest pile of shit exploding that's ever been known. Rob those words sound really familiar. People all over rural Canada said the same thing. You will have the same problem as we had. The urban folks rule the show. (just like the last federal election you had)The big city people will vote it in and to hell with everyone else. Most people in the cities have no clue or care about the needs of the rural people. They are sheeple and will follow the mainstream media bullshit. Good luck and stop it before its to late. Remember every time a lunatic goes nuts with a gun. You will be one step closer to gun control. Just look at the navy rampage, the bodies were not even cold yet and the mainstream was crying about AR-15's. No, I realize what you're saying. They do it the same way with everything. Little by little. They'll start in the cities, next thing you know the .001% of us rednecks left with a gun will have the rest of the country convinced we should hand them in or face life in prison. Probably a tough choice to make coming up for many when it actually happens. So............has the gov't in Canada got worse since it took the guns??? I think bad things financially are coming to the US and they are wanting the guns prior to this. Anything can still happen i'm not one to say we've lost until it happens there's a pretty nasty core group of people with weapons in the US ready to stand their ground and im one of them.

Worst ear infection I ever got was in Sedona when I got creek water in my ear. Sucked. Ruined the whole time there.

Then again if you can afford the blades and it's cutting.........go for it. One time Steve from Covington told me if it were really hard agate he'd prefer 5" per hour. I think if someone understood a saw well enough, how it's sounding etc,and knows to keep the blade dressed maybe you could get away with it and if you were into it for production then you could afford it as well. I personally don't think a 20" per saw that's direct drive no clutch is a good choice for the general public. I've made clutches in the past with mixed results might try it again. Nothing beats hydraulic I don't think, and worm drive off the main motor but then expenses mount it all comes down to money.

Sure no problem Donnie.
And yes Panamark, few people realize when they watch these fame and glory tv shows about all the dead ends. No one wants to see that and boy would ratings plummet lol. And you're right like I said the more you get out the more that kind of thing happens. You can't find anything if you aren't looking. Still though a HP saw sitting on a country road in Kansas is big time odd. I could see that in some place like AZ but not here. Just one of those holly crap moments.
Wasting some time on the net before a couple friends show up to spend the wknd. Good thing I picked up a case of 5 hour energy shots lol. Don't take them till I have too maybe around 9 or tonight as we'll be out 4 wheeling till 2-3 am.

No, I have an old 10" HP & yes, desperately in need of an upgrade!!!!!!! Rob, make her a 14". You need to visit Florida anyways. Winter is coming and it's warmer there. Plus they have more snakes. If I weren't so busy at the moment I would consider that. I won't say it's something that might not happen in the future. Best thing would be if I sumble across another gold mine and send it away before I realize it's gone lol. I'm a sucker for rockhound charity cases. You all anywhere near Tampa? I don't know if we can make it this winter wifes already had a couple weeks off but her sister lives there and if whenever we come we would be using that for homebase.

Amazing to find one that still has the clear hood. Most are in pieces or missing. Once when we lived at our old place I had a nice pick up truck so was called in to haul rocks for our club whenever they picked up estate rocks. They were contacted by a guy that was clearing his folk's place to sell. Tons of rocks, make an offer. The club paid I think $500. While loading up the rocks he said there was some old metal things by the garage we could have to if we hauled them away. Turned out to be a 24" and 18" slab saw. A little rusty from being outside but still cutting in their work shop. Sometimes good deals find you. That's awesome and just goes to show that it can and does happen. I have so many similar stories I could write a small book. I'm still waiting on the tons of rocks for $500 though and living in KS and not some rockhound locale that's likely to never happen.
