Looking at those pics, I was thinking the same thing.The core stator rotor motor combo is pretty tough! After a direct hit by a Ef5,the 2t22 could stand up to anything short of a nuclear blast!

I am starting to believe that everyone on this forum is very negative about everything. I am 15 right now. I have the garage space to work on sirens.
