trackman Posted May 3, 2020 Report Share Posted May 3, 2020 Last fall I moved my shop from the garage to the barn. The shop vac that I use for Scrollsaw an sanders started to lose suction. Checked the dust deputy bucket and it was almost empty. Checked the vac and it was completely plugged up. Couldn’t figure out why the dust deputy quit working. Been working great in old shop! After much head scratching I figured out I had put the suction hose on the wrong port!! wombatie, crupiea, Dave Monk and 5 others 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And here I thought I was the only "screwup" in the Village. Thanks for taking the monkey off my back. scrollingforsanity, Phantom Scroller and wombatie 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodmaster1 Posted May 6, 2020 Report Share Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) Will that would be something a person from Winchester would do(lol). My uncle grew up in Winchester and he did stuff like that. All kidding aside I plugged the cyclone on my dust collector and didn't realize it until I had to start ducking chips coming out of the planer.

Norm Fengstad Posted May 6, 2020 Report Share Posted May 6, 2020 I think we all have an UFF DA moment to tell. My saw developed a terrible rattle . Checked it over many times , tightened this and tigtened that, crawled under it and over it but found nothing that would cause it..Every time I turned it on it rattled untill, by accident, I moved the flex air blower hose away from the blade. UFF DA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedido Posted May 6, 2020 Report Share Posted May 6, 2020 I am laughing with you. I have a habit of working on something and when I get a different tool/move to a different one, I forgot to plug it in. I work in my garage and have to usually move vehicles to do anything. Every time I try using a tool unplugged, I notice the cord and say to myself “you jackleg!”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
