    Quit My Job . . .

    This guy has a lot of used machines and will ship. He is on the higher end if you can't find one locally but he will have gone through the ones he sells thoroughly. I have done some messaging with him on Facebook and he gets back to you with questions immediately...

    Quit My Job . . .

    I have a Consew 226R. Other than the smallish bobbins compared to Tpenfield's machine, it's an excellent machine. I found mine on eBay many years ago for $300 which was a steal. It was listed with the wrong model number and I was able to drive over and look at it before bidding on it. It was...

    Quit My Job . . .

    I couldn't agree more. The company I just retired from had great managers...the startup company I worked at before had great technical managers and poor business decision managers. Always great to have good managers and, for the most part, have had good managers my entire engineering career. If...

    RWD Tow Vehicle Launch Issues?

    It's a SHORT WHEELBASE vehicle...that's why it's a horrible tow vehicle! The ridiculously low payload just adds to it's problems. Even a Chevy Tahoe is a horrible short wheelbased vehicle and it's 1 1/2 feet longer then the cherokee! The ones with the Turbo diesel are the worst of the worst...

    RWD Tow Vehicle Launch Issues?

    It moves tongue weight but not that much depending on the physics of axle location. More gets moved to the front axles of the tow vehicle but of course that doesn't help your payload issue.

    RWD Tow Vehicle Launch Issues?

    My friend has a V8 powered Grand Cherokee. Only 1000# of payload yet he keeps saying he has 7000# of towing capacity when he likely has over 1000# just for his tongue weight. Horrible towing vehicle low payload and short wheelbase. His wife asks me why they sway so much when trucks pass them...

    RWD Tow Vehicle Launch Issues?

    Hope you don't tow that very far with an F-150. You use a WDH I hope!

    My old boss wants me back to consult. I told him he could offer me $300/hour and I wouldn't come back.

    RWD Tow Vehicle Launch Issues?

    Fortunately for me I have a brain and don't put in at launch ramps that would damage my trailer.
