Everything is fixable.. Not looking for total junk just looking for something to use once in a blue moon and dont want china. China has took my business and shut it down so I will not support them.. Been trying to buy my old one back that my uncle has now. He bought my old shop and business over 15 years ago and the torch is setting under the table piled under junk. He didnt even know what it was until I told him and he has never used it but he wont price it to me.. He does that with stuff and it drives me nuts. He has some really awesome stuff in that shop and its all under a pile of junk setting there rusting up and going to waste and he wont price any of it to me.. Lathes, Mills, Brakes, Tooling, ect and none of it has seen a oil can since the day i sold it to him and its in bad shape now. He is the kind of guy that if the machine wont do the job he will grab a bigger hammer or a longer pipe and brake the machine to get the job done.. Its just sad seeing all my old stuff i took years to collect and set up going to waste like that..
