All this talk reminds me that I have an air impact that I got free some time
ago. I have not used it very often. It would be considered unsafe to use in
its present condition but I take great care and I am aware of the problem
and have not had a problem with it.
Now here is the deal. The ball that is designed to stick out with a spring
on the back side to hold the socket on, is no longer there. it is not worth
having a shop repair it and probably not worth buying parts and trying to
rebuild it myself.
Does any one have any ideas short of making it another contribution to the
scrap iron pile.
Robert.
