    I’ve got one I’ve used for years. Love it for loading the splitter with rounds.if I can offer a word; wrap the set screw end with electrical tape a few times to keep it from backing out. Loc tite won’t hurt either. I guess a second word would be shins. You’ll know what that means.

    Hey Gary, sorry to say that I am your secret santa and have no clue when your gift will arrive here let alone to you. Did you get the card I sent trying to apologize?

    Emailed the company I ordered from and got a surprising response (Obviously I removed the email addresses from the copy and paste):

    Customer Service,

    Not sure if there is anything that you can do to help, but I never received the package that you shipped to me (Order #ORD-3341). The tracking number (9405511202555899221780) just indicates that the package was to arrive on December 12, 2020 and the last update that I have received was on 12/13/2020 indicating the package is in transit and will be arriving late. Just a whine, but this was meant to be a Christmas gift and obviously I was not able to give this as a present.

    Hi Brian,


    I am so sorry your order is lost in the postal system. We had hundreds of packages not make it in time for Christmas. We never expected the Postal Service to get weeks behind on orders. But I’m sure you have seen on the news how bad it was with shipping delays. Thank you for being so understanding and cordial about the situation. We have shipped out a new package via Fed Ex this time today, 1/8/2021. You should get it early next week. My apologies again and Happy New Year!

    That's great news. We had the same thing happen with a gift for a family member. We ordered 2 Christmas ornaments from Shutterfly, got 1, the other got lost outside ATL, using USPS, contacted them, shipped us a new one UPS, got it a couple days later.

    Hahaha, no worries I have a backup plan...I got the original package today. If the package doesn't get to Gary by the end of April, I will bring the other one to him at the Spring GTG!!
