I plugged in a small heater in the kitchen a couple of weeks ago to keep the chill off (had to use two cords due to where the electric socket was located). Knew I had gotten a twenty five foot, twelve gauge extension cord for it last winter because the plug had gotten to hot on one cord and melted the end of the cord I was using. I had coiled them up early this summer and put the heavy cord up so I could find it and threw the lighter cord in the trash. Well, when I got the cords out of the bedroom, I found one heavy short one and one longer light one. Figured they would work but knew I had put up the twenty five foot one somewhere. Plugged them in and forgot about checking the plug to see if it was hot. Went in the other morning after it had gotten real cold and was snowing and happened to feel the plug. It was too hot to touch and had melted the end plug again. I tore every room in the house apart four different times looking for the heavier cord. Even went and looked in the shop twice. Done the chores and went six miles into CO OP to get another new cord. I told myself on the way in, that as soon as I got back with the new cord, I would find the old one. Got back about thirty minutes later and got the new cord plugged into the heater. Walked thru the door to the bedroom to put the package the cord came in, on a shelf and as I stepped across the threshold I turned my head to the right and there on top of some boxes that were stacked by the wall, at eye level, was the old cord all nicely coiled up and waiting to be plugged in. Oh, well, now I got two twelve gauge cords.

An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair.
