That's my point. No time to criticize the OP. We have ALL done things we regretted. Anxious to see the outcome of this.

No one is criticizing the OP - YOU made an issue of what I've said- and I actually HAVE experience as a foreign auto shop owner and technician, as well as a tree surgeon, regarding my saw collection. I spoke of the correct way and techniques to do a freeze plug removal - WHAT have you contributed to this discussion- absolutely nothing, from where I sit.
If YOU have regrets for things you've screwed up, good for you.

Everybody here has pulled more than one "stunned" maneuver that in hind sight, makes us wonder what we were thinking.

CM is a very knowledgeable contributor and his postings need to be read for the good content they contain. Ovrzd is also an excellent contributor with a different style. The OP doesn't seem to be offended and probably learned from both. Ain't TBN great?
