If you want an American made Cyclo orbital polisher, you'd better act soon.

Cyclo sells Wonder Tool subsidiary
Denver-based Cyclo Manufacturing Company has sold its Wonder Tool Inc. subsidiary to
Glas-Aire Industries Group Ltd. of Stuart, Fla. Glas-Aire said it will move Wonder
Tool's operations to Canada to "increase Wonder Tool's margins."
Glas-Aire issued 1.25 million shares of its stock to buy Wonder Tool. The firm's
shares were trading around $1 on Friday.
Wonder Tool makes an orbital polisher used by the automotive and aircraft industry.
"Putting the orbital polisher into Glas-Aire's distribution system and moving the
Wonder Tool operations to Canada should lead to increased sales and better operating
results as volumes increase," said Robert C. Johnson, president of Cyclo, in a
statement

Subject: ISP
I thought Terry gave a good review of ISP options and everyone will have their
favorite. I use Earthlink in my business and access all my mail and store messages on
the earthlink's server through their Web Mail and Browser. That way, I can read,
store, anI have used AOL in the past but hate their software. AOL likes to compete
with Internet Explorer for your computer and created a lot of conflicts on my PC until
I de-installed it.
I am subscribing to DSL at home shortly, and will receive MSN as the ISP. Although I
have not used this, increasingly, DSL providers are packaging an ISP with their
service.
ATT also is a very good ISP
Another quality site is Yahoo. My brothers in Silicon Valley put me on to them for
access speed to sites like MapQuest.com. They also offer free e-mail and photo
storage. I'm not sure though if they are an ISP. Others may know this better.
One last option is the wireless connection. I also have a wireless Palm VIIx which
receives/sends e-mail, although without attachments. I use this primarily when I
travel such as waiting in lengthy airport lines to check mail, change airline
reservations,Randy Unter

Dang, it takes a lot to break one of those. The only thing that comes to
mind is since they are made of stamped steel, a metal/welding shop could
make a duplicate.

Subject: Raising the AS
Hello again: Here I go with more questions....I would like to raise the body
my 1969 Tradewind a couple of inches. The reasons for this are many. RJ has
let me know that there are no springs to move around. Without changing the
axles, is there another way? Someone suggested replacing the shocks with
heavy duty ones with an overload shock spring around it....he thought this
might get an inch or two. any thoughts? Tom Fairbank, 1969 25ft Tradewind

Gerald,
I've used Carb Cleaner and high-pressure air to clean tiny orifices.
Usually with success.

Matt, I think the orifice is the likely culprit as I had the same experience
with two different regulators.
