Engine Hoist

[TexTJ209]

Anybody in town got a hoist I can borrow for tomorrow? (I rhymed.)


HF failed me and only had 1/2 of one in stock. :(

[colman]

call me you can use mine but i need to charge 5 bucks for the next few that use it. it needs new casters. still works but just doesn't have that smooth gliding action that i so desire.

[TexTJ209]

Scratch that Colman, changed my plans so don't need it for tomorrow. Thanks anyways..

[colman]

if you can get the casters from the hf one then i will gladly buy them form you/trade

They already gave me the wheels off their display engine stand...so I don't think there's much chance of me getting those too.


You should upgrade your casters to the heavy duty pneumatic tires they sell...then you can use the engine hoist off the pavement. Had a friend who did that to theirs and it worked incredibly well.


Of course that costs money...so nevermind. :flipoff2:

[colman]

thats why i'm gonna charge a few bux to lend it out so i can upgrade

no offense, but i would find another person to loan me a hoist or buy one myself before i paid someone 5 bucks to borrow one. at the most, if its a long term thing, there can be a beer transaction.

[colman]

sorry if i let it get used 20x and eventually my generosity led to my casters needing to be replaced. pardon me for asking for a few bucks so i can fix it and still let others use it. maybe i should quit being generous and just not loan my tools out. no offense

Chadnutz?

What a jew.

Fred, in his defense, he is almost always the first one to offer up his hoist, kinda like jerry does with his sweet ***... :flipoff2:

I will give you always seem to have some random crap for sale cheap. but charging to loan a tool is diff to me.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

we're not talking a 5 dollar wrench here either though.

Maybe you should buy better quality equipment for everyone to borrow.

:flipoff2:

[bburris]

Chadnutz?

I think that would require spreadsheets.

:flipoff2:

:laughing: tru dat!


I think that would require spreadsheets.

or in lieu of that, some form of 'green discharge'...

[colman]

well the guy i'm letting use it not has some casters he just found so if we can make them work then i won't have to charge anyone. sorry for the convenience everyone

[Eckert]

[colman]

you haven't helped the situation, i know you bent one but i was able to take it off and get it straight. that was a while ago tho

[cj nut]

i dont really mind throughing down a couple bucks here and there to help a freind out with tools, especially since he has no problem loaning them out to someone when there in a bind or lending a hand...... ever heard of the expression " return things in better condition than you barrowed them"? at least he is willing to fix it and not just quit loaning tools.....

[jerryg79]

sumtymes i mis jahn cahx.

[JB]

I need it again. Can I pick it up this week sometime? Will buy 6 pack or $5 for a caster.

[colman]

i will be here, give me a call to make sure i am at the house
