Been a good long time since anything broke really,well apart from the hose on my wand a couple of weeks back and that was around 8 years old and only went as I caught it on the hose when I nearly dropped it.
Long may it continue .
Going to order another motor,as like to have a spare with me

In all seriousness well done, you're starting to get the hang of this game.

Taken me 8 years,but yes,actually looking after my gear now,expensive lesson learned I suppose.Machine gets flushed after use,motors get run with the lid open for a few mins after each job,and all my gear resides inside at the near hint of a cold snap.
Well apart from a few chems the other week,but didn't really lose much,used the fib and fab rinse that froze on a neighbours bedroom carpet today,which was polly prop,so that will be fine  ;D
