Roger, I keep thinking there ought to be a better way of doing this then either you or I do as yet. I cant help thinking that it would be nice if one was able to direct steam deep into the felt without it spreading out into surrounding felt. I dont really know how or if this could be done really, but it would seem to me that it should be possible to get closer to this idea then we presently do. I also like the idea of a tool that resembles a needling tool... with one to three small jet holes instead of needles. Steam applied this way would have to come out in short, strong bursts in order to penatrate without spreading me thinks... jus a mussing the evening away... :) > > Regards roger > Roger Jolly > Saskatoon, Canada. > 306-665-0213 > Fax 652-0505 -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
