Woe :(...Damage to MS200T

[dastevoe]

What about making a set of covers for the big dawgs ? You could take a couple of thin pcs. of plywood with a couple of washers sandwiched between as spacers (slightly thinner than the dawg), run a couple of strategically placed through bolts & nuts to fall between teeth of the dawgs. Can be a friction fit or add a bungee cord somehow ??
Just a thought...............

I've fixed many a plastic cover & leaky case with JB & some stainless screen as matting/filler with success.

A good thought, Dave...I'll ponder it.

Here's how it looks now, after I rough sanded it this morning. I have a bottle of white appliance enamel at home, may brush a bit of that on, though Pete McTree says I should let it wear it's battle scars proudly .

 

[pete mctree]

Tidy fix & a good job Mr B . Not everyday you fight a big dog & live to tell the tale

 

[Burnham]

I think it's solid.

 

[woodworkingboy]

Good looking patch.

Looks like B can start doing body work! Nice job on the repair!

 

[Burnham]

I painted it today...color match isn't very good, wet anyway. But once it dirties up, I don't imagine it'll make a lick of difference. I know it was completely unnecessary. Mostly, I just wanted to do it...make that unhappy occurance recede from memory .

Just another battle scar.

The original paint on those things is tough as wang leather .It must be some type epoxy based paint or something .

Looks good. Shouldn't be a problem from here on.

The last chapter in the dog-eaten 200T .

For comparison, here's the before...



Here's the completed repair, mis-matched paint and all...



I think it'll do.

 

[pete mctree]

Looking good. Now either get it used or posted to me with the rest of the collection

 

[woodworkingboy]

I like when saws get personalized. What you have there shows care, a fine quality.

Now you just need to train the 064 to not do it again.

You know: the whole raised finger, nooooooooo!..................bad dog, thing

 

[flynhigh]

The take a fair amount of punishment up in the tree them climbing saws!Banging intio everything.

 

[pete mctree]

Can't agree more. Welcome to the treehouse!

 

[Husabud]

Welcome to the house. I'm Bud.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Welcome to the TreeHouse, buddy.

How did you find us?

I have a metal echo here that the oil tank was cut through. The guy repaired it with JB and IMO looks good as new and I couldnt even tell it had been cut if he hadnt of told me the story.
If it was painted you would never know.

 

[Al Smith]

Well B. caught that one before it ever started to leak and as such there most likely won't be a problem with it .
