Bad week for equipment

[orezok]

Last week I blew up the motor on my 15 year old flat plate compactor and today my 35+ year old electric jackhammer went terminal. I guess i am just too hard on my tools. Does this happen in threes?

^^^

Yes. Yes it does.

:laughing:

Only 35 years old and worn out already? Maybe you are hard on it... aren't jackhammers meant to be treated gently?

Both pieces of equipment just want to retire...you got your money worth.

 

[mcfarmall]

Yeah, those tools don't owe you anything!

Sucks they went at the same time, but you did well with those 2 items. You got your money out of them.

Don't get to feeling too comfortable. There's always a skeleton in the closet somewhere, just waiting to jump your bones.
