<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi William,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My iron has inline switch (which isn't marked).
It didn't take long for me to realize that if I took a permanent marker
and made a slash on it when I got it at the right temperature I wouldn't have
to test for temperature anymore. I just make sure the slashes line
up (never turn it off) and plug or unplug it to turn it on or off.
Yeah...I know how to handle technology...</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Bookman Old Style" size=2>Hi Barbara,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bookman Old Style" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bookman Old Style" size=2>I Like it! I also iron with
the broaches, and have done it both ways - before and after applying
the Teflon. I think I generally prefer before as the Teflon grabs
a bit better before the bushing cloth is flattened more with the
iron. I assume you use a dial temperature control? How
hot do you like to set the iron?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bookman Old Style" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bookman Old Style" size=2>Thanks for the useful
tool.</FONT></DIV>
