Amrox BS450 Bandsaw?

Not to interfere with the excellent discussion in progress but one reminder of the excellent site on small band saws:

Franz,

Let us not forget the UHaul classic trailer wiring harness that will only work with your wiring harness plug IF you purchase the $8-$10 UHaul provided patch plug. Nothing quite like gouging your customer base for a few pennies more. Next time the brother-in-law's car takes a dump out on the Interstate I'm hooking up the flatbed trailer even though I did keep the patch plug from the last time I rented one of their car dollys for said in-law. Hoping I never see the inside of a UHaul dealership again. Wish I could say the same for the brother-in-law.

Calm down 2.0, I was just passin on information I heard on the news. You really gotta get that blood pressure under control.

I got one of them 460 gas swillers out under the snow pile, and I'll grant ya it can pull, if only it could convert all that torque into traction on anything other than asphalt or ease into a load, it might be something.

Now I can't pretend to be any sort of current authority on Michigan drivin habits, but I doubt they are any way superior to what the nitwits here exhibit. Screw Haul has always been a strange company, from the guy who founded it right on down, ****, half of the family has been murdered, and the other half is under suspicion of pullin the trigger.
You really don't want to get me goin on the "adventure in moving" my wife got me into where I got to drive the Screw Haul she rented from the EXPERT Screw Haul "moving consultant". That **** thing sure was an adventure drivin the Century Welder of the truck world. Last time I saw it the "truck" was danglin off the *** of a tow truck.

I been waitin for you to show up so I could tell ya, U Haul just announced they will no longer rent trailers to be towed by them DORF expotentials cause the DORFS are accidents waitin to happen.

I don't know where you get your info old one, or for that matter where they get theirs. But I've been hauling trailers from woodsplitter size to 10K# dumpers to my 8K# enclosed toy trailer since the first week I bought this rig. I realise that it's a tad under-powered for the larger stuff, and that's why I'm going bigger. But to say they are an accident waiting to happen? Give me a break. Someone's been smoking them funny cigs again.

If the statistics show that a higher percentage of accidents occur with FORD (note the spelling, Franzie) SUV's, it's likely due to their popularity. Too many idiots buy them and immediately think they are qualified to pull a trailer, or that they can drive it where-ever whenever. But I'd bet the same is true for ALL SUV's, not just the Fords.

Personally, I thinkit's great that they don't rent trailers anymore. That means these same idiots aren't clogging the road somewhere, jack-knifed because they forgot to park where they didn't have to back up to leave. And besides, I own my trailers.

Hey Franz, I ran your zip code thru weater.com, looks like a heat wave is coming your way. They're predicting a high of 36 on Monday.

I'd appreciate it if you could get behind that heat wave and give it a push, right now it's 5* and the local weather guesser predicts a high tomorrow of 8*. Looks like I gotta pump more fuel oil into the house this weekend.

Snow- the white stuff that covers the road, and renders most drivers complete morons. It's amazing how even in MI so many people forget how to drive in the stuff in the six months of the year we don't have it around.

It's also the reason we buy Christmas trees, as they are the only thing green we see for six months at a time.

snow...what's that? ...never seen it....must be a rumor.

[Scott S]

Mac, we won't be seeing temps above 12 around here for a while IN the sun!

[Fla Jim]

Bill;
15" of snow would probably be ok. If it got above about 20" He'd would have a hard time sending P=Mail

I was staking a new visitors' trail here at Hoover Dam yesterday. I had to take off my long-sleeves and park my gov truck in the shade.

Which part of that picture was the snow again? You need to adjust your camera, the pic came out all white-lookin'

In the 70's here. I'm outside of the magic garage with Dogzilla, making a carriage for my Ranger 8

Hey Jim, what would Dogzilla think of 15 inches of snow. I'll bet that would really cut his P-mail sessions short...

I just turned the office A/C back on because it is too warm outside.

Franz,

Are you up in the section of NY that gets dumped on from all the snow generated by the Great Lakes?

Sure am, if the wind comes out of the West, I get it from Lake Erie, and if it comes from the North, I get it off Lake Ontario. Fortunately, I'm close enough to Ontario that a lot of those storms go past me before they start dumpin.
Punch Zip code 14468 into Yahoo Maps, and you see where I am.
In 91, we got 4 feet of snow while I was layin in the hospital with a busted a$$, and my dalin calls me to inform me she can't get her car out of the garage cause of the snow. When I asked her how she expected me to get to the house and plow it, she got pissed at me for "bein so stupid". Then, she informed me all she needed to know was who to call to get the lane plowed, naturally, within the next 15 minutes. That was a chalenge since I haven't called anybody to plow snow in over 35 years. Half an hour later there was a truck plow and loader comin up the lane to open things up. I guess I have 2 good neighbors cause when I asked what I owed them they both told me nothin, cause neighbors are supposed to help each other.
