Ahh, thanks Guido, I totally missed that! Makes sense now! :loco: :crazy:
I dove into it yesterday and tried to get the piston on the left cylinder back in. I first cracked its fitting at the control box, just a very...
The chain almost needs replaced after just 4 tanks? What are you cutting, how many times has it been sharpened?
After seeing that high res photo of the bad spot by the flippy I knew what I had to do! It has a nice smooth case now. :whistle: :thumbs:...
Oops, its not 3/4, its only standard half-wrap. Here is how it looks now with the new brake handle, and Dex's "Magnum" suggestion on the...
I put a brand new brake handle and 3/4 wrap handle on it, with only a new rear handle cover to go. Its looking so nice now that it's going to be...

I like it, I like it, MiniMech! Congrats guys! :thumbs: :smoke:
Wow. what a collection (and a small fortune!) To answer your very first OP question: No, I don't think there is another "cigar nut" like you...
Just the opposite here. When I think of cottages I think of those cheap little places that we used to rent during the summers at Long Beach,...
ID1 took me to his new local smoke shop last week and I picked up a few maduros to try. I got the Arturo Fuente box along with a couple...
Yup, I have two of them, a 38" and a 42" machine. 1998 and 2000 I think. Owned the 38" first bought new, then picked up the 42" one off ebay...

Anyone have any recent experiences with propane prices in your areas? I'll need to fill the tank for my "backup" furnace some time before fall,...
