Found...

Quick root in the garage this afetrnoon and found two things.... clock dial gauge and stand I bought from Chronos about 15 years ago and the leads for my SIP 140 along with some Oerlikon rods - about 30 years old - worth popping in the oven?

I'd be almost willing to put money on the rods being useable

I will give them a go and report back...priced at 4 pence each....

30 years? sounds more like 40-50 years

Could be nearer the truth actually...lol

How long should I 'cook' them for please? 30 mins low heat or turn the oven on low warm and turn off type heat?

Many thanks mrfuzzy.
