Sorry for starting a hare running, then disappearing - it turns out the reason I couldn't access the Brock Metals website was that my wife's computer had caught a cold - a nasty virus, despite multiple layers of protection!
 
Aeinstall of windows later and it's all working much faster now. The temperature issue does suggest it isn't the best thing for cylinder heads of reven steam cylinders
 
I wonder if it would do for the gear bellhousing for my backburner Fordson Tractor project?
 
Ill have some thinking, maybe 5 of us could share a #150 ingot ?
 
Thanks
 
Neil
 
P.S. can anyone remind me where in XP you set the keyboard to UK? I can't get a pound sign!

XP keyboards.
 
Open control panel, followed by, date, time, language, and regional options.
Click on the Regional and language options icon, in the regional options box, click on the Languages tab then details.
Your keyboard set up will be displayed under the settings tab.
 
This worked for me after a recent re-install.

My apologies, every time I make a post I get a website error and a blank page - but the messages must evetually get through.
 
Kelvin - can you delete the multiple posts?
 
My apologies to all,
 
Neil
 
 
PS: Thanks V8, sorted now with your help!

Strange, that happened to me everytime I tried to post yesterday ,  so I was surprised to find my posting on here.
Glad it helped anyway.
