Ah! Reading between the lines, they squirt a 16mm diameter
solder slug out of the extruder (with flux holes in place) then
pressurize the flux at one end of the slug whilst (g) drawing the
other end through a series of reducing rollers.

Pretty darned clever.

Which brings me to wonder now...
Can you still shoot out the lights with a water gun?
Are these tube lights hot enough to break that way???

Inquiring minds, you know!

So when I posted about the gas jet I made for the
coffee roaster... where would you have me post that?
rec.crafts.metalworking or alt.coffee?
Both were equally suitable. As a rule, I don't
crosspost, but every once in awhile...
