I think the government has a GSA contract to buy the saws,
so they get a pretty good discount.

That is impressive. Are these all being shipped too Tenn before final delivery?

I'm not sure if I understand your question. It's a local forest service order.

Yep. Not sure exactly how much, but I know that it's pretty decent. We have A LOT of National Forest and BLM land around here. A lot.

The reason concrete eats up mag and aluminum is a chemical reaction .One ingrediant of Portland cement is alumina made from blue clay .This reacts with the metal much in the way the elements of a battery work .Aluminum and mag are known as sacrificing metals .They leave before anything else .A short time on the crete is not bad but a long time is very bad .It's also the reason you can't use aluminum conduit in a concrete slab .

Thank you for clarifying that al. Makes sense now that you mention the conduit.
