Chuckle, I have to admit I have done that too with firefox, plus there is on the small mill, a copy of konversation running on window 3. Its about 80% done with the next disk, but I have a suspicion the duty cycle is going to be above 50%. Motor brushes are holding up well today, ammeter sitting at about .125 amps steady. Cecil: I pulled out a couple of the "supermagnets", and it seems they fade the instant you manage to get one of them loose from the stack they are shipped in, stuck to sheet steel, zero problems lifting them back away. Sitting on the mount casting, which seems to be ferrous, only about an ounce of clamp. The weight of the cable has no problem jerking it loose to fall whereever. I was a good idea though, and I'll use it yet when I get the cable where it isn't tugging on it. But I still have a hour or more weed eating to do & the back is yelling at me for what I have done. And my son will be here in 2-3 hours ack an email I got from St. Louis this morning. So I'd better bite the bullet and get to it. > > > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >-------- Don't Limit Your Business.
