    For sure this, or it is AI generated. I am a bug guy- I’ve had many of them. You can see where this has a bug front end, but they raised it up, and tilted the hood. They sectioned the center of...

    Lots of progress! We got the door in, moved in some racking, and built tons of carts. CNC all set up- can’t remember if that was done in the last update. I think it may have been. Putting floors...

    Good point with the floor. Should do that now.

    I know acoit the pic issue, but I have to use the phone because it’s just too much trouble otherwise.

    I agree with you. There is too thick and there is too thin. It’s a balancing act.

    These are my thoughts, and just to give advice, but you’ll get many answers and then you have to make your own decision- you know how that goes on forums!

    You would be amazed how strict Historical Preservation (the entity) has been on what can and can’t be replaced. They wanted us to just patch up the veneer. We did a sample to show them it would...

    I almost got burned by the high shipping cost. I buy a lot on eBay, and I was buying something I needed and saw a decent price and almost didn’t see the shipping cost!

    Thanks for the feedback. Yes- I agree the CFM ratings are all kind of like those “peak hp” ratings for vacuums. My Harvey G700 pulls way more air than this 2hp Grizzly, but I seem to remember the...
