    Might save us much brain-strain and frustration and we could all take away something to help clear your shed [​IMG]

    Must take quite a lot of heating to get a bit that size hot Nick. Is it a paraffin filled pump-up job?

    Well I never! Second correct guess! Must be because family are in the building business - ex-bricklayer and now two carpenters. I sort of recognised from things o/h has in his shed :D

    But don't know Dave W's item. Will have to have a think about that.

    I thought it was too easy. I should have taken the pic from the top!
    Well done Pal. [​IMG] [​IMG]
    It's my last remaining "staight key" - A No.8 Mk III circa 1940/50s. (Glued to a sheet of perspex to stop it sliding about the desk top)
