Ha! got the bigger weights today,but didn't get to play with yet,Wife wants me to do some summer time upgrades to the house(there needed),and the bug hatch this year is insane (screen doors).I'll let ya know tomarrow,i hope,the ceiling fan project is not going well yet.Is there an american made fan that doesn't suck!!!I have two from the 70's that kick ass,the new stuff is not even close and didn't go cheap.(need them to blow)Still wondering was your belt hitting the starter gear,the drive face gear or just melting down?
