I found this….

I jumped in the car this morning, drove two hours to Wengers in Meyerstown for the used spindle, another 45 minutes to Messicks in Mount Joy for the seals. Lunch in Lebanon, then headed back home. Reassembled by 8:00pm. As crappy as it is to have a failure like that, I still feel like I won a small scratch off lottery prize. Hopefully I can get it hung before the rain tomorrow.
I feel your “Rain pain” NIW .

While I was at Messicks “palace”, this caught my eye…. it is a dark metallic orange, looked like it was clear coated with black cherry. I dunno, if I paid that much $ for that kind of paint…. I‘d be afraid to scratch it!

They had one like that at Swink’s in Lexington, NC when we bought our T2290 recently. Pretty, but I thought the same thing; too pretty to use.
