bigjohn: Kara- I just picked up a new HTD14 Drop Saw from HP lapidary. Regarding the pump filtering method you used, I'm curious if the mesh straining sack you picked up from Amazon worked out for you or not? Jul 26, 2024 9:40:29 GMT -5 *

bigjohn: RocknRob - Ditto here brother! Ordered the same saw and it arrives today but pump is on backorder. Glad I found this post. Jul 26, 2024 9:49:03 GMT -5
