    Lets talk Cutting torches!

    Mine is a medium/light unit and will cut 1/2" plate no probs and one of these days I'll build a CNC table for it but one of the smaller units would be brilliant to have around and is much better than the traditional Gas Axe (Oxy Acetelene torch)

    Transmission problems

    Ring gear is on the flywheel, most motors stop in one of a few places as they come up on a compression stroke then when you go to restart them it's always wearing that section of teeth.
