Might have been the wildabeast femur I tried to dispose of....

In all seriousness the tabs (plastic? Silly) that hold the unit into the color were damaged simply by removing the unit to work to fix a leak in the sink.

Waste King was good enough to immediately ship a replacement unit and they didn’t want the old one back. Now what do I do with it? I can’t brong myself to throw it away with a perfectly good 1hp motor in it...

Any ideas? Projects?

Is it possible the flange can be ordered?

If you post the model number, someone might be able to locate the part.

Then you would have a good unit to dispose of...

Well, there’s your problem, you bought a Waste King. Should have bought a Waste Kang.

Some folks in the art glass world use disposals to grind glass grit.

Way back some disposers were demonstrated by eating a Coke bottle.

There's your problem.

Waste KANG grinds up baby yaks, not wildabeasts.
