I had a renter trash a house and disappear in the middle of the night two days before an eviction hearing.
Damages to the house added up to $7800. My attorney told me we could get a judgment, but we'd probably just be getting in line behind some other people.
He was right. When the renters left, they left a box of paperwork behind. Going through it, I found where they still had an unsatisfied judgment against them from someone else for $4800 for the same thing.
I finally sold the house. My last tenant, a Deputy Sheriff, is still living in the house. I referred to him as the "deadbeat Deputy" while I still owned the house. Rent checks bounced, he tried to keep a dog after I'd had him read back to me the clause about no pets when he signed the lease, etc. He couldn't pay the rent one month because he used the rent money for a down payment on a pickup, etc. His last rent check bounced that he paid to me before paying rent to the new owner. I think he was naïve enough to think that once a check bounced, it was a dead instrument. I knew what day he got paid, hit the bank with the check again, and took the money in cash.
He called me and was furious. I'm convinced he intended to stiff me for the last month's rent thinking that since I no longer owned the house, I wouldn't have any leverage to collect the rent.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
