That’s pretty much the same for my RO. I dropped it once whcih broke one of the bolts that holds the case halves together. I taped it up with some electrical tape to take the stress off the remaining bolt and all is well. And this probably happened 4-5 years ago.
I’m gradually shifting over to Milwaukee M18 system for everything, but I’ll keep my existing HF stuff as backups. It works, what can I say? I’ve got one of those angle grinders, too, and it’s been seriously mistreated but still works just fine. -D > On Apr 18, 2024, at 10:56 AM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > I was telling a friend last week that Harbor Freight tools have really > improved in the last 10 years and I think the electric tools are where the > real improvement has taken place. > > I've got one of the very cheap Central Electric angle grinders, I think it > was $20 or less, that I bought to cut off some bolts under the house at the > great northern estate.
