Got a cam to candlestick conversion at home. The basic stick is the camshaft with a couple of valves welded on at right angles near the top, with bearing cages welded on horizontaly on the end of each valve and one on the end of the cam itself, so three candles can be put on. Sounds wierd, I know but it actually looks very good and probably would sell for more than 5$ :) cheers Marcus __ Marcus Grant mty016@uk.ac.cov
