<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hi Alan,<DIV><SPAN class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </SPAN>I use travel steam irons, from flea market/yard sale. Can't say I've seen one on a shelf, so I don't know what is currently available, but the words "travel steam iron" came up with several things similar on the web (including, <A href="http://travelsteamiron.com">http://travelsteamiron.com</A>/) $60 or so, compared to the no more than $5 I have spent used. They have a small orifice in the bottom, and you add salt to the water. The outer surface is plastic (it is just a steam creator, like a vaporizer). I use 3-4 time the salt they recommend to get a good head of steam. The newer one I have had too large an orifice, so I made it smaller with a shield of thin sheet metal (aluminum flashing) held on with duct tape. Works just fine. You can set the iron on the keys, steaming the next couple while you remove the last.<BR><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV>Regards,</DIV><DIV>Fred Sturm</DIV><DIV>University of New Mexico</DIV><DIV><A href="mailto:fssturm@unm.edu">fssturm@unm.edu</A></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN></SPAN> </DIV><BR><DIV><DIV>On Jul 19, 2007, at 6:23 AM, <A href="mailto:reggaepass@aol.com">reggaepass@aol.com</A> wrote:</DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><DIV> Hi List,<BR> </DIV> <BR> I would like to use steam on an upcoming key bushing job, but have not been able to find any of the handy devices my colleagues have online.
