hammer irons?

Tim Coates is right in his concern about scorching the hammer felt.  The way 
I solve that is to have a rheostat in the circuit.  I have an extension cord 
wired up with an ordinary light-dimmer switch.  I can use this with any heat 
tool, e.g., hot key bushing iron, shank bending pliers, etc.  Easy to keep 
the heat just right.  (Be sure not to run motors or electronic equipment 
through the rheostat.  That can wreck 'em.)

start them, then you can start the clocks and never touch them. That's logic, 
as I know and use it...."
