Cheers Neil - still a long way from where I'd be happy to attack a real panel. Have just ordered an armful of stuff from Kent and a DVD - 'O/A Ali for Really Stupid People' so theoretically I should have no excuses other than complete and total operator ineptitude.

What I have realised though is that my gas welding tips have seen better days, so I'll need to track some new ones down. Of course NZIG have discontinued my little Colt torch and you can bet your bum that the no doubt Chinese sourced replacement tips (sorry 'blowpipes') will be completely incompatible with the rest of the rig. 'What do you expect Sir, you did buy this one 40 years ago...'

Enough of my whining, there are panels to make.
