I also use Phillips from Costco with excellent results. They repair/replace without question and provide all supplies at no cost.

Once I realized his posts were of no value, I just scrolled by anything he wrote. Seems to work. I have to admit that the responses he elicits can be downright hilarious.

One of the many reasons I sold the house in town and moved to the farm. We were on a treed 5 acre lot. Bastards would come on the property once a year to make sure I was obeying the rules in the areas they couldn’t see. They confronted me about a bunch of cans with bullet holes hanging in...
