Cool!

I've seen photos of those and those were the water heaters used by Watts in their movie Danger - Explosion Lurks.

Those copper ones are riveted together.

I copied the movie over to a .mpg file format, of course, it's about 315 MB in size. I even had permission form Watts to put it on my website (of course, that e-mail was lost in a crash years ago, but getting their updated written permission should be as easy as asking for it, that's what I did).

Anyone have a website with enough room to put the Watts movie one so anyone who wants to can view it? If so, I will burn a copy of the file to a CD and send it to you, but only so it will be put on view for all to see.
