That has to be more work than just squeezing the bottle! You've got too many tools to play with Bibio!

i was wondering why it would not prime properly so bright sparks thought he would help it along with compressed air. turns out that i had clamped the tube to hard with the little jubilee clip after changing to my new downstand. once sorted primed with gravity no probs but yes i just had to try again but this time i turned down the pressure, worked a treat

your talking about the kid that wanted to see what was in a big oil drum marked PETROL when he was younger so he looked inside the hole with a lighter. yes it was petrol yes i was burnt badly but do you think i learnt my lesson ooohhh no i still do stupid stuff

stanley knifes/screwdrivers threw hands/fingers, welding rods stuck to fingers, weld flash in eyes, molten lead in face i could go on and on but you get the drift

ooohhh best one was cutting with 9'' grinder while sparks set alight to overalls only knew when i got a bucket of water thrown at my leg.

Perhaps a permanent web feed. Then when the good stuff happens we'll all be able to rewind for chuckles.
