G'day Pat

They are excellent quality and the pin clips are superb. You WON'T 
have any solder running out of those pins, guaranteed. They also come 
with the chimney clips

Hey, if you are looking at the bakelite ones, Why don't you look at 
the metal ones. They are even better and just $1.00 dearer but don't 
come with the chimney clips for some reason

All 3 variants, the flat ceramic, the bakelite and the metal, are 
excellent quality with no loose connection issues. I have a small 
quantity of all 3 types here.

73, Alek.
