Most of us are suffering some sort of supply and demand pain these days. I have been waiting on new washer for 45 days and counting. Have to go to the laundromat-hoping by July 16. Good luck!

tempted to run old cylinder with the seep just to get work done. got a 12x15 ft x6" deep pad to create next door as well as possible work for local shed company setting pads.

don't have any Houghtons in family do you?

I'd be running the seeping cylinder in the meantime. You're just losing a bit of fluid and making a bit (?) of oily mess, but still able to work the machine. I ran my leaking FEL coupler for months while deciding and waiting.

really considering it.
right now I can shunt stuff/borrow friends stuff to do work but when it hits the 2 week mark its back on.
