SNIP (again)
Jason... ignore the pedantic moron - pages such as yours are the very
heart of the web. Millions of fascinating sites built by people who've
actually got off their arse and done something, and have had the
presence of mind to share their knowledge.


I am, I just find it amusing that such people have nothing better to do
with
their time, and therefore it is hard not to be tempted to wind them up! I
have seen much worse arguments on usenet, but it's almost like watching a
soap opera, you get sucked in.

As someone who has similar pages on my own website I know only too
well how long it takes to put such an article together - not to
mention the legwork involved in doing the actual work described
beforehand.

May I make a small suggestion?
You mentioned the use of Cyanoacrylate adhesive - and whenever I've
used it in conjunction with plastics it's given off some very nasty
fumes ( a quite exquisite pain if they get in your eye ).
I'm none too sure whether the glue you mentioned does the same with
the plastics specified, but if so you might find it helpful to warn
the punters of the risk ( i.e. wear goggles or do it outside ).

That's a valid point. The glue mentioned is specifically aimed at use with
plastics including PP, but nevertheless, it is obviously sensible to take
precautions, so I will add a warning, thanks.


Oh, and you need an 'r' he "Stick you guttering piece over the
outlet "

Oops, thanks for the proof-reading!

Happy hit counting!


Well, I don't know that I'm *that* obsessed with hits, but I feel that if I
can help just one other person, then it's worthwhile. Thanks for your
interest!

Jason
