8 years isn't very long in the big scheme of things. If you are using a tool everyday it is. But if you take it out a couple of times a year to poke some holes it isn't.

Well hopefully you never need any replacement parts, because they probably have had dozens of models between when you bought yours and what they make now.

Old thread but recent experience. Got a Fein Mag Drill Model JHM USA5 that has seen little use, but I broke the plastic coolant bottle. This is actually labeled as Jancy who Fein aquired but has a Fein manufacturers label, model # etc and was made in the USA not Germany. Anyway, what a...

BTT.

Thanks, finally some meat!

I see some parts on Ebay and a few other vendors but no info about this pump. Like when it was made, how it compared to other Champion pumps, what hp etc.. Anyone have any info?

Bad idea, the IBC does not allow using sheeting for tension.

One nail in shear, located near the end has very little capacity. Plus the bracing isn't even continuous. That bracing was clearly not installed as permanent structural bracing.

Those 2xs were tacked on only to facilitate stabilizing the trusses to sheet the roof, they are not structural components. And as poorly as they are fastened wouldn't do anything to prevent buckling, Compression blocking between trusses would, not just a nail here and there.

Probably found out how much new steel costs. :D

That 20 hp gas is more or less about 10 hp electric. Surprised that is enough power to do that level of blasting.
