Title: 20x more power?
Post by: Liahona on March 16, 2007, 09:44:30 am

A long time ago there were comments about a truck mount being 20x more powerful than a portable.  Does anyone know where it is.  Other than that where the report on the same subject is.  Best, Dave.

Mike knows how to post the info on the machine I use so, Mike if you are reading this can you post it again.  Other than that if you look on Steamway's web site it is there.   Powermatic Legacy 2100.     Best, Dave.

in my house nowt gets done before 11am all the wife does is sit there and read the papers in her dressing gown, same on a sunday

I'm always up by 7am so I book a job for sat & sunday morning, nothing big ( did a l/r & d/r & hallway this morning tomorrow I'm doing a t/l & h/s/l). nice and easy and it puts an extra £250ish in my pocket for time that otherwise would be wasted.
