I was there yesterday and two weeks ago (visited my bro)! Last time, I got a IIci but decided against the IIsi and the LCIII, glad they went to good homes. When I was there Yesterd…
Yeah, taking it apart doesn't seem too bad. I'm a ACMT, so i've got access to the service manual and its been very helpful. I will ask you this, I've gotten very close to gettin…

Is this just for snits and giggles, or do you have purpose in mind for this machine? Now that it's been mentioned, I second the vote for the Jackhammer as a pure performance upgra…
