Tug; overnight we had a skiff or slightly more of snow fall. So now we got snow again!

dfkrug; it's obvious I'm going to have to locate a source for cylinders. I'll have to ask and find out where they are. The Parts man at the dealership did give me one source in the Halifax area but there should be some closer. Thanks for the advice.

It just kills me when these cyls gets shipped. They are usually poorly
packaged, so they often come out of their box. A few weeks ago, the
cyl I ordered did not arrive....but the box did! It was cushioned on the sides
fine, but the end went thru the side, probably on the first or second
toss by the UPS warehousemen. All it takes is taping some cardboard on
the ends....I sure wish they would do it.

The best deals are still from SurpCntr.

I hope you pointed out to the UPS delivery driver that something was missing!

Egon- Its been a while since I've been to your end of the world but around here the logging trucks all have hydraulic components. They know where to go to get parts in a hurry at a reasonable price. Our local machine shop rebuilds and fabricates cylinders. Failing that Princess Auto but delivery might take a week or so.
PS- Where is ERIN? Our snow hasn't stopped in over a week. Almost 20" in my bush....

Pat, we have lots of logging trucks around here. The shop I go to has the knowledge of how to do it or where to send me locally.

Thanks.

HEY PAT :...."Erin" is 20 minutes north-east of Guelph,..20 min. north west of Georgetown,...20 minutes south-west of Orangeville and ten minutes north of Acton and I'm real close to the JD dealer at 124 and 125. Big "horse" country many stables etc.

I know roughly where you are,..we used to camp at Anstruther Lake years ago.

Still snowing lightly here but the wind has dropped considerably thanks!!!

Merry Christmas up there!!
