Otis elevator send micro fish to China to produce motors in our Chinese division. Yes there design system is or was out dated. They made the motor windings wound backwards. There for there only good in China not world wide. Funny there bicycle riding doctors can cure throat cancer go figure. It ain’t high tech, more low tech but it works.

Survival tips recommends eating your neighbors dog or cat first. Don’t eat your own. I have many tree rats, squirrels and a new pellet pistol. Plus a stg44 full auto “bb” assault rifle. Just Incase the squirrels start throwing nuts.

I lost my job in 83,84,85 due to the cheaper import of machine tools. Plus the interest rates were 21%. The imported machine tools couldn’t hog metal the way our machine tools could. The Avco lycomming turban engine manufacturer for the m1 abrams tank, main rotor purchased a Japanese machine that couldn’t cut the titanium rotor. I built them a USA made machine with $250,000 worth of special tooling that did the job. Proves you get what you pay for.

Now they have delivered a giant hornet to the state of Washington. I guess that's an encore to COVID:
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/02/us/asian-giant-hornet-washington.htmlIt devours honey bees like popcorn, feeds them to its young, and its stings can kill humans. Another present from Asia.

I have a bb full auto stg44 assault rifle, bring on those hornets.lol

Location: Northeast......
I'm pretty sure a rapid fire spitball shooter gets you 20 years in the northeast. A F/A BB gun that looks like an stg44.... that's got to be good for at least 25-life.

I would say it is a sign of the times . Most people are stuck at home so they are catching up on projects that have been on the back burner . I am sure that includes getting that old saw up and running . Importing parts from China isn't the coolest thing to do at this time.

Best answer right here.

I’d say also the frustrations with slow shipping times and shoddy quality parts from China.

Is this really a thread about accelerating the buying and selling of cheap chinese crap? I'm doing everything I can to never buy such crap again.

Am I alone in that endeavor here on Arboristsite?

Not quite alone.

 

[Mad Professor]

Yep I ordered one of those little China girls , they said she was on backorder lol

big hooters are extra, might add cost too, but free case of corona!

The mexican beer virus don't survive 3 weeks in a box of things, you'll get it from your fellow American so be proud.

Their headquarters were or are still there, where they get their components are like most other manufacturers, all over the place. I have had great luck with Denso starters on my diesel equipment.

Where is Denso made Japan?

fyi.

Denso is the electronics corporation subsidy of Toyota Motors.

just like GM has AC DELCO.

Toyota created Denso.

many of my parts are made in USA (Denso) but they have factories all over the globe.

(I work for a Toyota dealership)

who the hell came up with this murder hornet ****? it's an Asian wasp. drama queens everywhere.

this is nothing new. Beekeepers have known about the Asian wasp for years.

killer bees, murder hornets, war on drugs, war on terror. The mere naming of things is causing high anxiety. That is terrorism, as far as I'm concerned

ps, mice and voles will decapitate bees too. I guess their heads are tasty?
