portable band saw strikes back!!!!!!!!!

[flchub]

so i have had this porter cable band saw for about 4 yrs now,we use it alot on fence jobs,it gets dropped,thrown,cussed at ,etc etc.

Today was the day she had enough,i was watching one of the guys cutting a pole while on a ladder ,all of a sudden the bandsaw catches on fire!!!!!!!!!.

first i was like oh shit,as i watched my guy trying to put the flameout while begging someone to unplug the saw,then i just couldnt stop laughing ,no one got hurt and i talked to the band saw about the incident while i rewired her :nurse: and shes better now:elefant: :elefant: :elefant: :elefant: :elefant:

I had a pretty serious talk with my DeWalt 18V skilsaw after it nearly took two finger off. I'm all healed up now and we are working with one another again. But I will not give it another chance to bite me.

what made me laugh more than anything was my guy says to me:man u really want to use the porta band to cut all the 3" poles,i said yeah why,he says:i think this things gonna get mad at u ,i said: man shutup and get to work,i wont take what he says lightly again!
