Re: (264 lines)
Dear Paul&Jason (sounds like a rock group),
your openminded support and will to do something is something. Now,
gage vs. syringe will be under observance, so will your experience about
hardrunning still without heat build-up. The one who told about it: did
you guess or did you in fact measure the tip's heat? Don't grasp what
you mean with 'simple' men, suspect some sort of double-edge paraphrase.
Your thumb rule 8xflaw size is good. Our auger has a trapetsoid thread,
outer circumference polished, space in between very rough indeed, you
say this roughness doesn't matter, thought opposite. Mentioned silver
filled polymer not same problems as with lead/tin ditos, then what's the
difference: (corn) flakes vs. balls? Are balls less benign to clogging
than flakes?
See you on the CRT glass
