ECT Reamers

[BILLY D.]

HI ROCKY

SORRY ABOUT STARTING A MAJOR CONFLAGRATION ON THE FORUM. BEING THAT THERE WAS A LONG TIME LAPSE AND NO ONE ELSE HAD POSTED AN ANSWER, I MADE THE COMMENT "OK I'LL GO FIRST". I FIGURED EVERYONE ELSE WAS AS CONFUSED AS I WAS. I THOUGHT THE GENTLEMAN WAS REFERING TO A CHAMBER REAMER, BUT I WASN'T SURE. AFTER WORKING AS A GUN PLUMBER FOR SOME TIME I AM COGNIZANT OF MANSON, PACIFIC TOOL AND GUAGE, CLYMERS AND PLACES TO RENT REAMERS, ELK RIDGE AND OTHERS, BUT I HAD NEVER HEARD OF ECT. THAT WAS THE CRUX OF MY QUESTION. I WASN'T TRYING TO BE A SMART A$$. I WAS TRYING TO EXTRACT INFO. I'M SORRY TO DISAPPOINT ANY ONE BUT I'LL BE THE FIRST TO TELL EVERYONE I DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD THERE IS TO KNOW.

WHEN I MADE THE COMMENT THAT "THIS WILL PROBABLY BITE ME" I MEANT THAT I THOUGHT THIS WAS A PIECE OF TOOLING I SHOULD BE FAMILIAR WITH, BUT WASN'T.

I TALKED TO A FEW FRIENDS AND SUPPOSEDLY PACIFIC TOOL AND GUAGE MANUFACTURES THE REAMERS FOR MIDWAY AS AN EXPANSION TO PTG'S PRODUCT LINE. MAKES SENSE TO ME, TWO COMPANIES MAKE MONEY IN UNISON. NOW KEEP IN MIND THIS IS ALL GRAPEVINE INFO.

I ALSO TALKED TO MY CO-HORT, COLLEAGUE, FORMER EMPLOYER, AND ADOPTED SON AND ASKED IF HE HAS USED ANY OF THESE IE: ECT REAMERS. HE SAID HE HAD, AND THE QUALITY IS EXCELLANT.

THATS FOR YOUR EDIFICATION ROCKY.

ANY WAY MY APPOLIGIES FOR SCREWING UP YOUR FORUM, IT WAS NOT INTENTIONAL. I'M SORRY THE POSTER WAS SUFFERING A SEVERE CASE OF PMS, HE'S GOTTA LIGHTEN UP A BIT.
