Showerthought: I used to think our old sand reclaimer was a money pit

I was complaining about the constant maintenance on our Palmer unit to a guy from the foundry over in Canton last week. He said they ran theirs for 15 years and the key was just cleaning the fluidizing deck every single Friday, no matter what. We started doing that exact thing, and after a month, our new sand yield is up a solid 5%. It's not broken, I was just lazy. How often do you all clean your reclaimer guts?

Wow, that's a brutal lesson.

Honestly, the real lesson is how fast trust evaporates. You see it with game releases that over promise, or a restaurant with one bad health report. People just walk away and never come back. That silence is way more brutal than any angry comment.
