    Re: White Streaks In Clear Polycarbonate

    Rick,

    I read your reply and believe I understand what you are saying, but just want to verify. When you say leave the barrel full are you implying exactly as that states? Or do you mean just run...

    Re: Purging Compound

    Rick,

    Thanks for the tip on the (PDQ) brand. Once I see the results of the Chem Trend I'll post them.

    Re: Screw Binding?

    Also, do you agree with Brent that a worn screw shouldn't make it stall. This was just something my repair technician told me that he had seen in the past. Seems to me that if it was worn a little...
