I think it was recently said that Dave has passed. It was always good to 
have him around. He bought the parts at a discount through his job at 
one of the clinics/hospitals at UAB. His supervisors were nice enough to 
let him add radio needs to job orders.

I have one of his packages that include the caps for doing the large 
cans. I can't remember what I paid way back then, but it was probably 
bumping $90. I would like to sell mine to anyone who wants the whole 
package. It has all of the caps and the info sheets, and parts inventory 
sheet.

Contact me off list.
