It's really not such a big deal as you may be imagining.  And it's
pretty impressive-looking, sitting there on the floor with its
exhaust system coiled around it like a big snake (oops, spoiler <g>).

A small hint -- old rusty hose clamps respond much better to nut
drivers and you'll hardly ever cut your fingers.  And they have two
different size heads, the size you have a driver for and the other
size.  Six and seven maybe?  Six and something, anyway.  Don't be
tempted to use 1/4" instead of six, unless you like spending quality
time unjamming the heads from the nutdriver.

Best,
David
