But that's sort of like comparing apples with oranges, John.  The system I
referred to looks somewhat like a small canister vacuum cleaner, with a hose
and fully portable.  I would hope to use it for double-duty, for key bushings,
if the output isn't too strong for that, and also general household cleaning.
What you are suggesting should work fine for key bushings and the cost is much,
much less, but there's no much else you can do with it.

Seems to me I saw a steamer in a PTG convention exhibit hall, and as I recall
it was well over $125, maybe even in the $200-$300 range; I'm not sure anymore

Regards,
Clyde
