Did you sprinkle holy water on it before the first cut or something? Honestly that thing should've folded like a cheap lawn chair after a week of hot cuts. Harbor Freight tools usually die just looking at real work, so this one might be the chosen one. Six months is wild though, at this point you gotta keep using it just to see how long it lasts out of spite. If it ever does quit on you, frame it on the wall, that's a legend right there.

Your liability cap is the only number that matters when you're deciding how much risk you can actually carry. Dropping from 250k to 50k to land one account means you just bet your whole business on that client paying on time and never screwing up, which they already showed you they will. Find out what your insurance covers before you sign anything like that again, because the line is usually where your policy stops backing you.
