    You're entitled to your opinion, but history tells us that it's just this kind of against the grain thinking that has led to many of the technological advancements that we enjoy today

    If you are looking for replacements I think Home Depot's lumber department might have them.

    Anyway, don’t get to knotted up over this, I’m sure you’ll get to the root of the problem soon. Assuming that the cord on that unit is good maybe you can just spruce it up with a little sanding. Good news is that if your bushs are a tad loose you can try soaking them in water overnight.

    PS. Put some pics up of your tree wheeler!

    With so many references, one may be inclined to believe that El owns a thesaurus, even though they are extinct.
