    hey toggy at $1000 an inch thats expensive, knock up your own in the shop and take them in with you then you can still buy the new tools when you come out.

    See you soon, good luck

    BJ,


    if I was to look around the metal lathe I could probably find some nice curly bits of swarf.

    Far from hygenic enough and far to damn sharp for my likings.:eek:

    Hope all goes well Toggy.

    I like Grunt's idea of the head job too but it might put too much stress on the ticker.

    Actually, just what is involved with this stress test ?

    Craig, his bill should cause enough stress to do the trick.


    1st one I had was on a walking treddle & wired up to the ECG.

    Last one was wired up again whilst pedalling the bike. He had this new ultrasound machine ($250 000) and when the pressure came on you could see the heart pumping (or trying to) and blood passing from one chamber to the next. Oxygenated blood showed up red and other as blue if I remember correctly. The valve was just flapping and not closing; allowing blood to flow back. He was mighty pleased with his new toy and reckoned it had just paid for itself. Thankfully I didn't have to pay for it.

    Obviously you haven't had his bill yet Toggy.

    Good luck with the rest of your tests.

    The term 'grammar nazi' was invented to make people, who don't know their grammar, feel OK about being uneducated.

    If its a couple of stents you'll be as right as rain mate. Had mine put in at Royal North Shore in Sydney nearly five years ago and you can feel the improvement within minutes - yes minutes. I'm still not 100% but 95% still feels good to me. Rots of Ruck mate.
