You have to increase the hardness of the metal used to avoid stripping :D I'm such a geek ;)

No, no problem at all! I always thought it was silly for this thread to be called 'macro' guessing game. Anything can be cropped to make great subject material - usually though macro is much easier.

A little bit of controversy now and then adds to the health of the thread IMHO.
I can only apologise if anyone was upset by this close up.
