[TheForge] Updated on Mike Porter

John,
Yes, apparently Frosty did too. Here's the weird part; I wrote up an account 
of how to easily change out the hole in the side pipe for a MIG tip and up 
the performance on old fashioned Aussi burners six years ago. It's been on 
the Ron Reil site all this time, but there seems to be an incredible amount 
of resistance to simple fixes--go figure!
