      And it definately worked

            I find a vice, a big pair of Stillsons and a scaffold tube normally do the job.

                    Those inductors are great, we had one on trial a few months ago but the boss wouldn't stump up the money for it. I would consider buying one myself but they are alittle pricey.

                      a little pricey ! they are bloody ridiculous ! - however the amount we use acetylene justifys it

                          How much, as a matter of idle interest ?
