To all those who replied, with exception to Greg1959, who I won't waste my time with,cause he can't keep his word. Just like the people I complained about.

WHAT YOU ALL FAIL TO REALIZE is the fact that you lack the strength of moral character to challenge corporations that stick it to you year after year,whereby you consider their business practices to be the norm and acceptable without exception. I truly feel sorry for you, but then again, when you lack the courage to make their wrong- right! I have always been an upstanding individual when it comes to doing business, never stealing( as the afore mentioned Companies have) under the guise of doing business. I have read on here several posts that complain about business, auctions,LP gas dealers,tractor haulers,renters, shyster lawyers,other farmers taking advantage of others, so to them all the anti comments concerning my posts fits them perfectly. Over the years I've pushed back against their unethical business practices,and will till my last breath. It keeps me from being a Milquetoast like most. It has nothing to do with stress,just be treated fairly and honestly, which should be done for all . There seems to be a lot of narrow mindedness, which most of the repliers are in favor for and exhibit in their words.

I am proud I am a strong willed individual,not willing to be their victim no matter how large or small they appear to be in the business world. Those who replied to my post must be willing to overlook Companies transgressions,I am not one, and it has nothing to do with stress and everything to do with principles. What most don't realize is, to make the companies to stick to their word and honest business practices, it takes time from me to argue the point to them,which could be used for other projects to be done. Thereby, wasting my time to make them understand it is not acceptable for most people and to be treated honestly and keep their word. Imagine people saying something and staying true to it til completion, not a bad idea. Just a shame the repliers feel its ok to let Companies slide and get over on the little guy,because they can. As an example, redoing our tubing on the 706 bucket lift we called Westendorf Co. for their ID tubing size and thickness, their reply was " that information was a trade secret and they wouldn't give out that information". We called a Stainless steel tubing manufacturer with the size we needed and was assured they had it in stock, and had to make a trip to Minneapolis to pick it up. We drove to Minneapolis, their distributor didn't know anything about it. There we set in the boiling sun calling several different individuals from the company we first talked to, we contacted the original owner of the Stainless steel tubing company,and he assured me it was on the truck for todays shipment and the trucker would meet us in Stone Lake,Wi , AT NO EXTRA CHARGE TO US,he even included an extra piece in the shipment FREE, sure enough we got our tubing,that was an honest business man, and we called him back and told him we appreciated his honesty,and we would do further business with him from time to time. We bought a commercial tubing bender and fabricated our own lines for the loader for the 706 tractor.

Most of these posters would have quit,and never called the supply company to let them know the unfairness of their business practices.

Enough said.
LOU

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
