KRV,

I don't think you need to apologise for your spelling any more, we all know you by now and realise you have a problem that isn't your fault at all.
You are just one of the lads with a slight problem, nothing more, nothing less.

I personally do have a bit of a problem understanding what you are trying to get across on the first reading, and want to help you so much, it becomes very frustrating on my part at times.

If you can just type a little slower, as I can't read very fast.  :lol:

Now having read it a second time, and understood completely, I can't wait to see the pics. :worthless:  Eventually


Bogs

Sorry, all the posts between the first and this one appeared as if by magic while I was posting. Great idea and pics

That is a very nice fix to an age old problem. That is the way that the oil cans should have been built when new. Great job and nice write up.  :D :D

 I guess now I'll have to give my oil can that treatment to tame it down a bit.  :lol: :lol:

Cheers  :beer:
