Imran, thanks for sharing this, and Steve, thanks for your additional input.? I have a Hammer C3 at my home shop but haven't had any issues (2 years ownership). But I'll check it out next time I'm in that shop.? If I see anything weird, I'll share back with this group.
Also, Imran, I joined your Facebook group. I live in Houston, so not really a midwesterner, but I am really glad you started that group and are allowing us "outsiders" to join!
