Thumbs up

A humbling moment I am sure. Mine was necking a POS GE
B&W. Kinda hard to tell him but he was good about it.
Happens to everyone a few times he said. Part of the overhead.
His son did the same thing once & he played stupid. A few
minutes under brite lights & a rubber hose got him to confess.
The skin & hair was flying.

Lesson learned, and I never touched another IF or MPX can in a consumer product, ever, except for the RCA quad coils (little square-holed slug) in the Colortrak days, and the occasional APC alignment.
