TSHEP -- I'm impressed ... bilingual -- you speak/write in both rant and english. When ranting, I'm usually still too mad to translate & re-reading my own rant gets me mad all over even when I've calmed down. Been banned/black balled at a few AT&T stores for having an "attitude" brought on by run around, poor service from employees.

About 5 years ago a chunk of granite scored my FEL cylinder shaft.
Worked OK but leaked too much for my taste.
Took it to a hydraulic shop hoping he had some magic solution,

Long and short is he did a complete rebuild and machined a new shaft and all new kits and even painted it.
Bill was slightly over $100. (and that included a new short hose that I had not removed)

I kept the old shaft as it was 1 inch plated cold rolled material.
The old shaft found new uses, one of which was to machine it into a 'bullet' to drive out and/or align my FEL pins since I remove my bucked annually to install my snow plow.
