Greg, I love your work. Keep it up! (sincerly) I especially enjoyed the
shear factor of a woodruff key. I simply would have torqued it and if it
sheared I'da bought a new one. Something about a mechanics (the oaf touch)
feel. Wonderful stuff!
I have an over/under guage that you speak of in the junk box with the
capilary in tact. Make me an offer I can't refuse and I'll put it in hot
water and confirm it still works. the biggest problem may be the plug nut
that seats the sensor. I dont recall the condition.
Aloha and thanks for your contributions.
