Looks great, Steve!  I think I may have to plagiarize your design when I get
around to using my tube.  By the time you're my age (30), you may be the
next Bill Wysock or Jeff P.  Happy holidays, and keep us posted.  Looks like
John Freau may be getting a run for his $ as far as tube coil records go.
And relating to my post on the age of list members, I met Steve two years
ago at DC Cox's when he was 16, and look at what he's accomplished so far.
One heck of a variety of folks into coiling!
