😞 that was not what i had promised my wife but the only way to finish with peace and quality he will be back Phoenix = bird Truck (which has become a symbol of immortality) that burns itself and rises from the ashes rejuvenated

A few new facts about our rebuild: From looking at what is defective and renewing it has now become a complete rebuild. And if we are already so far we will also take technical improvements that are not immediately visible and thus of course move away from the pure original. Our goal is an...

I may have expressed myself incorrectly and hope that i do better now. From a German manufacturer who has this tool in the offer, I expect a delivery capacity or better a note that currently delivery difficulties exist. It is not about the shipping time. My tool supplier was promised 2-3 days...

A kingdom for a 1.5/16 nut...... In all of Germany neither online nor in the store available. I did not expect to find one in stock, but that there is no assured delivery time is really annoying. Even brands like Gedore and Hazet do not give a delivery promise. Now my local tool supplier is...

I have edited the title since the error processing is long history In the meantime, we are in the process of rebuilding. How much was actually defective or worn could not be seen from the outside at all. 10 years of Army service, then 8 years of daily driver and 15 years of storage took tribut...
