does he still work there?

No he was asked to leave after we worked on getting the machine out fro prox. 24 hours with no luck. The machine was eventually freed, but it took almost a month. Had to dig thepond down around it to get the ground dry and hard enough to move it. The machine was cleaned up and sent to the auction. Buyer beware:( :beatsme :(
