   Yo . . some how your first post got deleted ( according to the message in upper right ) so I have no idea at this point what your DeWalt problem is.

   Need more info please.

   PS: too lazy to go look in White questions.

   I had enough energy to stroll over to Ask the Experts, despite the dad-blasted head cold that's settled on me this weekend.  Looks like John has already answered his post.  If I give you a link, do ya think you can scare up the zip to get over there?http://forums.taunton.com/fw-experts/messages?msg=2816.1forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)

It is driving me crazy.I gotta let it go . . . just let it go. . . . BUT I NEED CLOSURE . . . just let it goooo . . .thanks for listening

   medicinedog, hmmmm, I must have missed that one.  What kind of info?  (I think we can hijack this thread, as it doesn't seem to actually exist any longer, LOL!)

   As for fortitude and stamina, hardly!  I'm just hanging out here because I don't dare enter the shop.  My brain is mush, and the vision bleary -- this is before the drugs kick in.  Yesterday, I thought the cold was a minor inconvenience, but today it kicked into high gear.  I got through a schooling session with one horse, got both arenas harrowed (last day of the pay period, rack up the hours!) then came home and crashed.  Recliner, big TV, and a glass of "Airborne".  Soon to bed, hope for sleeeeep.forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)

   Post: "Need help finding back issue"I tried to copy the address to it directly on this line but that never seems to work any more for me when I go and test it ? ! ? Sorryhttp://forums.taunton.com/fw-knots/messages?msg=45163.1Get wellPS: I am serious about not drinking tap water especially in winter. I boil or get fresh filtered water from Safeway self serve filtering station.That has been my secret cold and flu weapon for a decade. Has served me VERY well. The SW machine is serviced every week or so ( there is a sign off on the machine for the tech so you can keep tabs on it ). Kills germs with ultra violet light.My reason why municipal tap water chlorine less effective in winter: water is much colder in the storage tanks in winter; power of chlorine to kill bugs is reduced chem reaction works best when warmer.No data to back it up. We swear by it in this house. No body believes us around here.Edited 2/1/2009 12:51 am by roc

   Roc, to get the URL for a post, you need to go to the post number, right click, and select "Copy Shortcut."  For instance, the number for this post I'm typing should be 45247.8, upper right-hand corner of the post.  Knots is unlike most places -- you can't just copy the URL that's in the address box at the top of the browser.  Has something to do with "frames" I think....

   Water:  we're on a well.  Iron pipes, though, so I don't drink it often, has a funny smell.  If it's left to run until the water standing in the pipes is gone, the water becomes cold and very tasty.  We use Safeway water too, for mixing up the Airborne or any juices, and for the hummingbird food.

   Hand-to-mouth is the most likely suspect for becoming afflicted with the common cold.  Or being in the way of a big AhhhhChooooo!  I think my immune system was down too, I was rather depressed the last few days --death in the rider-family I belong too, really great lady, just gone.....forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)

   roc,

   Betcha it's a/was a Delta 22-580 not a Dewalt.  Aint no such model for Dewalt.

   Yeah, it was -- see my link above.  Poor guy took it in for servicing some problem, and it came back really messed up.  Reading the latest post, it seems he found the problem (operator error) and all is well.

   Can't fault him for the name glitch -- if he's anywhere close to my age, we're lucky to get in the right mental file drawer (the D's) let alone find the right name.  Stress'll do that too, LOL.forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)

   Ahhhhh, all is well no fault intended.

   Wanna hear a good un?

   A few years ago when getting ready to go to a woodworking show the wife asked me if I had decided on which planer I was going to get.  I told her I was pretty sure it will be the Delta 22-580.

   Couple days later and I had all the spiffy new tools set up the wife came into the woodshop and said, "Hey, how come the new planer is yellow?  Doesn't look the same as the others."

   The Dewalt was a better deal.
