I'd say whoever was in possession when a blade broke was responsible for that blade.
Now, let me ask you a question. Our local County Commissioners recently denied an application by our local Ford and GM dealer for a conditional use permit to put in a MX track on 137 acres he owns on an Interstate interchange a mile from my house. He had grandoise plans right from the start. He hadn't even broken ground and he was talking about pulling in several national events per year with, like, 6,000 people each, talking about building motels to accomodate all the people who were going to come to his track, etc. He would have had all paid personnel including paid EMT's on hand whenever the track was open, permanent wash rack and rest rooms, and every thing else high dollar and first class. He envisioned having something going on there almost every night and all weekend every weekend.
The reality was, the well on the property tested out at 792 gallons PER DAY. If 100 people flushed a toilet once, you've used up your water for the day. There were traffic issues, noise issues, trash issues, the fact that there is a cemetary directly across the road dating to the Civil War, private residences directly abutting the property, etc. I don't think I would have been impacted much, being a mile away with a large grove of trees as a noise barrier between my house and the track site. Even a fellow who was once shot down on putting in a drag strip down the road said that was not the location for an MX track. The vote from the Commissioners was the minimum to deny the permit.
My question is, do you think he would have succeeded with his plans? My own opinion was he should have planned on starting smaller and letting it grow.

Today's Featured Article - Tire Fluids - by Curtis von Fange. It came as a surprise. The tire on the tractor needed to be pulled off to get to the brakes for service. The tires were blocked, the rear end raised on jacks, the lugs loosened and the tire loosened from the hub. Then, as the big lugged circle of rubber slipped off the last wheel stud it became apparent that there was more there than just an empty tire. Four hundred pounds of rim, tire, and fluid dropped to the ground like a sack of wet cement. Fortunately the installer jumped out of the wa
