Darin- I don't know how you do it day in day out. I sold a customers machine, that we had the engine rebuilt on to a guy in Arizona, back in August and now I am responsible for every hiccup the machine has and am supposed to supply any and all parts that look worn without charging him. I do not and will not sell machines, I just work on 'em. I'll leave the horse trading to you, it's not worth my time or headache.

Im very sorry to hear your delima. How may i help? have the machines i sold you worked out?  I have a minimum of 5 calls a day on welding machines. most, are from aws and Billswelderrepair.com. thanks to YOU.  99% of all the machines that i sell are "AS IS". Most machines i buy, i DONT know the story behind the machine or know if they have had "open heart surgery". I want to thank you again for posting my name on your web page.... Lunch sometime? thanks, darin

Lunch sounds good. I am hiring another guy and am now working 6-10's to try and keep up. Ii just had to vent about the machine. I sent the guy a new carb at no charge and then he was unhappy with the looks of the selector switch and wanted to replace it, so I sent him one. Now he doesn't want to pay for it. When I sent him a bill, he called me a liar and a cheat and said he would be making a post on AWS. I told him to post what he liked  I had been friendly and helpful as best I could. Just makes me want to pull my hair out.

Kay, some people are like that. You could spoon feed Him, hold his hand while He poops, and wipe for Him wen He is done and it still would not be enough. I don't think a post by that Ahole will tarnish Your reputation here at all, in fact I am pretty sure there are those who You have helped that would jump all over Him if He posts.

daveboyer I agree he could post here and it wouldn't hurt her reputation one bit

Hello KSellon, to my knowledge and having limited information at best, I believe you and those around you to be honest and up and up individuals. I have followed many of the topics and discussions that you have been gracious enough to comment on and provide assistance with to believe that this particular individual isn't giving you a fair shake. I know from the many different instances that you have provided information and assistance to countless individuals on this site that you are widely and sincerely appreciated for doing so.
     I can also tell you this, many years ago I worked as a farm/heavy equipment technician. I had a particular individual bring in a tractor to have the fuel sending unit worked on. In this particular case I had a choice of either removing the entire operator's deck of the machine or coming up with some other method of accessing the faulty part. I opted to very carefully use a large diameter hole saw to provide access to the faulty part and save the particular customer more than a full day's shop rate to make the necessary repair and also provide future access in the event of a similar failure later on down the road. I also very carefully finished the modification and painted it so that it looked basically like a factory feature. Upon explaining what I had done after determining the failure and making the repair, I was chastised by the customer and told that I had no right to make that sort of decision and modify his machine without his consent. Although I could see his point after hearing his complaint I was still somewhat stunned and peeved with his attitude considering the care that I had exercised and my actions being aimed at saving him time and money. I guess what I am saying somewhat echoes that of others here on the site. Even the best intentions of an individual are still left up to the interpretation of those that they end up dealing with and sometimes the results aren't as we would hope. You are appreciated. Best regards, Allan
