many new items are sold with no parts available

I bought a brand new Sears 8 HP chipper around 800 bucks and wore out
the tree chiiping blade in a month, it was a severe service event
nearly trimmed forest.

i was unable to get chipper blade parts and after it being at their
service depot for perhaps 6 months my complaints finally got me a
whole new chipper, they sent the old one to the trash compactor.. i
offered them a 100 bucks for it but they refused. both chippers were
the same exact model

i tried ordering a extra chipper blade set but was unable to buy the
part. if you ask me this is stupid....


I wonder if a machine shop could make one for you? I know guys with CNC
machines that can take a hunk of any metal and through the use of magic,
can turn out anything. ^_^

TDD

I need a part too. I have been using a wonderful light Sears battery weed
wacker. Replacement plastic blades are not available. It's only 2-3 years
old. I only have 1 1/2 left. I tried using wire, no good. A crimped piece
of regular string might work, but I need a ferrule of some sort.
