I have been using fluid film for years...looks like our secret is out now. Use it on anything that moves, is exposed,

Its been a rough couple of weeks here. Had to go back into the hospital just after new years for fever and pain. Fever to a cancer patient is not a good thing. Spent a couple of days there and now back home. Did the bone scan thing and it turns out that the cancer has metastasized to my...

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers. Had a minor setback over Christmas and had to go to the emergency room at the local hospital. Seems I somehow got some internal bleeding that was causing an acid reflux like distress. Got on meds and iv's and am now back home and feeling a lot...

WOW, Reds, you have been through it all haven't you. Amazing!! Am so glad you are still with us. You are a living testimony that this thing can be beat. I totally agree that a positive attitude and the 4 pillars are so important in our struggle with the dreaded big C. I have a strong support...

Yep, it worked for me....congrats to the owner and police for catching this low life, now if the judge will just give him a nice long sentence we can all have a very Merry Christmas.

Thanks to all of you and especially for your thoughts and prayers. Just finished radiation and my first chemo treatment. Had a talk with the Doc and he thinks the cancer may have spread to my bones. I guess a little bad news always precedes the good news. At any rate, they are confident they can...

To all my friends and acquaintances here on the forum, I want to share something with you. Today I start on a journey I never expected to take. I know some of you have been there..done that, or know someone who has, but this is all new to me. Today I start radiation treatment for lung cancer. I...

I originally ran 1/4" stainless tubing to my bays, then switched out to 3/8" stainless tubing. Made a big difference in the draw on the motors and more pressure and volume at the bay gun. I would go with the 3/8" stainless, if fact, I have done all my installs with 3/8" stainless. I get it from...

Scott, all my bays siphoned. When I added the check valve, that took care of the problem. By feed tank is not highter than the booms so the check valve worked for me. Just a 1/4" low crack check valve that I got from Car Wash Supply here in Houston.

Hi Scott, I had the same problem, my equipment room is elevated as it is in a flood zone. Water constantly dripped from the guns. The solution...install a check valve open at the "in" side above the boom in line with the bay hose. When the bay is shut off, the water down flow will open the check...

It was a pleasure visiting with you and getting your Futura machine running again. Sempre Fi

The I/O fault is the Input/output fault, usually caused by a loose connection at the power supply. Check your connections there. There are some other things that may cause that, depending on what controller you have, ie ; touch screen, Uniop etc. You might also want to check the connection...

For an oscillating motor, it doesn't matter which way it turns.

I have "No bucket washing" signs in all my ss bays. When someone is using a bucket, I just point to the sign. That usually takes care of it. Some smartasses will say "I'm not washing a bucket". That's when I go off on them and say "Wrong answer, get rid of the bucket or get off my lot". Some...

I think this all started with the legalization of abortion. The disregard people now have for the sanctity of live and the moral decay have led us down this road. Unless we as a nation get our values and respect for life back on track, it won't be long before we see more and more degeneration of...
