Sea Story switch: ON I know a little bit about jetting. IP: "Strap this on." followed by numerous 4g manuevers-- Me: "I'm not feeling so good." followed by much melting and peeling of O-2 mask = puking with fortitude. I experienced loss of torque, high exhaust temps and gain of much shame. Many years and many hours later, only one single 'jet' line in my log book. What, what did you say? Oh, you didn't mean Naval Aviation jet stories.... sigh. SS sw: OFF revmaaatin.

Ok, its WAY Past NKLR. The movers broke my SHARP, round, rotating microwave tray. $48 replacement for a microwave I received for Christmas in 1975; just so you know, it really works quite well.... 358 days later, I have JB Weld-ed together. Welll the two big pieces; tomorrow I use a 'stone' to smooth out the razor sharp edges.... The componets of JB weld say "STEEL" and "hardner". and as you know, microwaves don't like 'steel' alumimum or other ferrous critters. Q. Is it really steel (I don't think so); I think it is just epoxy, but I am wondering how my beloved microwave is going to feel about a jolt of JB weld rolling around in her belly. what say you? Is JB weld microwave safe? drum roll please: and should you like to know: http://jbweld.net/faq.php#faq016 it is last faq posted. revmaaatin.

Rev, You'll know in about 2 seconds once you power it back up with the tray installed. ;-) FWIW, got an Amana for graduation from CSU in 1988. It died *exactly* 16 years later - to the day. The oven was pricey in 88' (the receipt was taped to the back). I bought a Panasonic from Walmart for about $75 that ran circles around it. I liked it so much, I gave my girlfriend one for Christmas just so I wouldn't have to use her ancient mechanical timer oven. lol eddie

I am wondering how my beloved microwave is going to feel about a jolt of JB weld rolling around in her belly.

It is epoxy. There's no metal in it. -Jeff Khoury
