    Reminds me of the time a print shop across the way in the industrial park had a tap stuck in a roller. Bloody expensive, those rollers.
    "Can you do anything with it?"
    "Yep."
    Fired up the oxy-ace, heated the broken tap to red heat, turned off the acetylene and let the high-carbon tap burn out without harming the threads in the roller.
    "Cor, well done, thanks."
    "No problem."
    I didn't tell them that was the first time I'd done that. :)

    Man that is a great article, mainly because it's full of nothing but pure unadulterated truth.
