I'm usually done in the workshop by 10, but sometimes I'm so keyed up
that I can't sleep. Yes I think we share this peculiar affliction.
| Looks like you found the Big Texan, as well. Did you try the 72oz steak? |
Wouldn't dare! I don't know how anyone could eat all that beef.
Interesting/curious place.
| I am surprised by the difference in height of the Ambo heads, compared to my Eldo, unless the camera angle set up an illusion. Looks to be significantly taller on your Ambo. |
I don't think they're much if any different. I have an Eldo too and
haven't noticed any big difference.
| The one thing I am really not looking forward to is wiring. |
It's not that bad actually. I had re-wired the Eldo at the same time
the Ambo re-build was going on, and I think it took a weekend and a day
or two to just about completely re-do it.
==> British Wiring (they have a web site) is a good resource for getting
heat shrink tubing, protective sheathing and the like.

Thanks, and good luck with your project, too.
