I recently read "Shop Savvy" by I think Mountebank, and in it he goes on
about how to do precision cutting with a cutting torch. He describes a
torch guide which holds the torch a constant distance above the
workpiece, which guides its movement in a straight line, and which uses
a "clockwork" to control speed. I posted this recently, inquiring how
this might have worked. Well, anyway one closed on ebay tonight (no I
didn't win the auction). I saved the auction image:

The auction
(http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=7569088405) text
says the item was made in Sweden.

I'd be real interested to know how this works.
