Watch out!

[Phil Patrick]

Over Christmas I brazed a piece on an old printing press for my father. I cleaned up the piece to remove 100+ years of grease, and grime, etc. Ground my notches, fixtured it up and proceeded to full steam ahead. Long story short, I hit a hidden pocket of evil goo of some sort. When it burned, the resulting fumes got me in the face. After some gagging and coughing, (and losing the ability to do math do to my brain melting), I finished up the job.

The lesson, when you think it is clean,, check again, there might be a booby trap hiding in it. In this case, it was in a hole for lubricating a pivot point.

Yours,, minus some brain cell but VERY lucky,

Phil
