Think about what, BobF?
In these economic times when the cost of living is constantly going up, but my income doesn't? I'm sure if given the chance to purchase gas at one station for $3.50/ gal. when across the road there is another station selling gas at $3.00/gal. most of us would drive across the street. I've been known to drive across town to save 2¢ on a gallon of gas.
Economics is economics. Brand loyalty is one thing, but unjustified higher prices is another. I'm thankful for the troubleshooting document provided by LMS, and I have spent hundreds of dollars there for tooling. Even then, I shopped around for the best deal on what I wanted/needed. But paying twice the price for the same spec part ain't gonna happen...
Today, I will work on setting up a treadmill controller and motor to run the mill until I get the parts I ordered to fix the original controller.
