    Crush washer - what is that?

    Why go through the trouble of selling on Saturday. Rather go ride your bike - race it preferably.

    Crush washer - what is that?

    :biggrin: i will hoot in your driveway when i come around to pick it up. Just put up a sign when you in the toilet or having a chow - do not want to disturb you.

    Crush washer - what is that?

    Well, then the thread is of some use to you after all as a wannabe-racer (coming from a backyard mechanic) - 1. Jughead's business hours and attitude to clients is now well known, should you live close by and wish to make use of his services 2. Crush washers are only available from dealers...

    Crush washer - what is that?

    Jughead, why do you insist on making it about you and your business when i clearly referred to the retail trade and the fact that those with business models that cater for longer trading hours make more money? Such business models would, logically, imply a larger staff compliment, maybe even a...

    Hey Slainthe, Are you sure you are available on Saturday to sell me that wood? Why not restrict your business hours as well?

    Crush washer - what is that?

    The impression created with having a shop is that it is open during normal business hours. Show me where they clearly state anywhere on their website that they are dedicated sellers to the trade only. And dont get personal or i can call you a condescending keyboard jockey with a superiority complex.

    “Look What You’re Missing" - The links for on line viewing now added.

    It is lekker to call the wife when there is a biking programne on and say - "look, we were there, you remember?" "See the cool things the WD's are doing?", etc and she enjoys it too. Must say that I have never been over Ouberg and, being afraid of hights, i was looking at some of that footage...

    Crush washer - what is that?

    Guys, i am not making a grab for Danie' spoon here. Suffice to say that as a working stiff, as Sidetrack mentioned, i only have a certain time to buy stuff. Many people are in the same position. If you choose to close your business at 11 o'clock on a Friday to go surfing or do whatever you feel...

    Crush washer - what is that?

    Jughead, i feel for you. You are basically in a service industry with what sound like many idiots with unrealistic expectations to contend with  - i can symphasize. My point was to retailers not being open during a period of normal commercial activity - e.g Wurth "shops" closed on a Saturday...

    Crush washer - what is that?

    Jughead, i like you - not that it really matters, as you have shared freely of your knowledge on some of my more te hnical posts before. What i read here is called "emotional discharge" - which is good, get it off your chest ;D I cannot help it that some of your clients are assholes - such is...

    Ja, vergelykbaar met die oorsese penny trick :biggrin: Probleem is dat dit nie altyd werk nie. Het al gelees van tand breek want die een penny was pre- iets en was harder, etc, etc. Weet nie waarvan ons goed gemaak is nie. In elk geval - ek hou van tool, en hierdie een is n baie nuttige een...

    This is for an Italian bike - they dont like it if you just stuff anything in there :biggrin: Anything of comparable hardness could break a tooth. The Huskys are well known to vibrate the main drive gear nut loose and shear the woodruff key on the shaft so torqueing that nut down properly is...
