Me? Help anyone with a mechanical project?!? I once sprayed a listee (he
know who he is) with gasoline by turning the ignition key while he was
holding the open end of the fuel line coming from the pressure regulator.
Trust me: you don't want me anywhere near a mechanical project. Electrons
I know from, keep me away from all that other stuff.
