    Now I was six when I did this and it has still not retoned after 40 years but is a good reminder.

    Hey kids! Don't do this at home! ;)

    Different era. No guidance, cleaner came with the set and certainly no internet.

    This would hurt a lot more if I did it six months ago. Information is easily accesible now.
