RT-Mod Rob[501st] Posted June 14, 2012 Report Posted June 14, 2012 All was going well when suddenly the pump seized. Turns out two of the vanes broke off and jammed the motor. I guess I'll be cleaning the shop for the next week til the new ones arrive. Ugh. Broken vanes in the background. Quote

Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted June 14, 2012 Report Posted June 14, 2012 That sucks! Or... doesn't? Blame all the people who keep ordering armor from you! Maybe if you made a crappier product you wouldn't have so much wear and tear on your vac table. Just a thought. Aloha, -Eric All was going well when suddenly the pump seized.

Scootch[TK] Posted June 14, 2012 Report Posted June 14, 2012 Congrats on the wear n tear! Hope you are back up soon Quote
RT-Mod Rob[501st] Posted June 29, 2012 Author Report Posted June 29, 2012 One wrong set of vanes, one right set of vanes, a mojor re and re of the pump later and.....another failure. Poor thing was just too far gone. Well, that pump gave me 11 years of trouble free service and now it can RIP. New pump came yesterday and was put immediately to work. Wow, now this pump really sucks! Quote
