I guess its the price we have to pay for being on the road to nowhere & have such a small demand for these kinds of tools in a country with a population of 4.6 million.
Aaryn NZ.
I believe in having a spare. Even with as good as the Rupes, and Flex tools are, nothing is failsafe.
Totally agree with Mike's statement.
To pay that price for those tools is real dedication to your craft though. For someone to make that much of an investment says a lot about their convictions. Props Aaryn!

I never would have guessed those little Phillips head screws would have come loose.
A simple tightening, and the 3401 is purring like a tiger!

Anything on a machine like a polisher, I like to use Permatex Loctite on any fastener that has a chance to vibrate loose.
Be sure to use the blue (medium strength) and not the red (almost impossible to remove without heat).
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Not a bad idea at all!
