But there's a world of difference between "SPOT" testers (and the like) and Bowden cables supporting overhead x-ray tubes and image intensifiers (or whatever it was Mike had in mind).

For me, that's always been one of the interesting aspects of working with (on) "medical equipment":- it's sheer diversity!

As I may have said many times before, it's up to the biomed (you know, the experienced, skilled, type) to determine when it's prudent and (or) appropriate to fit parts and "accessories" from "second sources". smile
