Great job on catching that scam ad yesterday, both @Wladek and @Christopher in separate threads.
I understand the need to remove the threads but it could be very educational to show what's possible (fairly easy) with help of AI.

Wladek had great photos and info in his FS thread, so here's the link...

Hmm, I was sure one end was reverse threaded, but now I had to run out and double check, and it isn't!
