€  I tested* the spotwelds in two Chinese 3-500Zs.  Unlike 
late-production Eimac 3-500Zs, the Chinese spotwelds were strong.   All 
of the Chinese spotwelds showed signs of having melted.    (Clean-looking 
welds are usually bad.)
  
 
* note -- the test:  Slap side of tube firmly into open palm to generate 
horizontal decelleration force on the anode-cooler.  If the fin assembly 
bends, the spotwelds are defective.  

Editorial Comment  (not recommended for Pollyanna types)
The Chinese seemingly have a talent for knowing what works and what 
doesn't.  For example --  For years they tried treating convicted 
rapists, burglars and non-professional arsonists.  However,  it was 
discovered that the re-offend rate was virtually 100% after "treatment".  
The solution:
1.   stop wasting money on "treatment" and incarceration that didn't 
work. 
2.   execute all such offenders.
In the first action under the new policy, c. 50-000 were reportedly 
'offed'.   Currently, rapists, burglars and non-professional arsonists 
are kept alive until they can be used for  parts  --  i.e., 
kidneys/livers/lungs/hearts/corneas are harvested promptly after 
execution, packed in ice, and transplanted ASAP.   Of course, first there 
must be a tissue-match.  

Meanwhile, in the U. S., convicted rapists receive "treatment".  One of 
my sisters-in-law was raped by a convicted rapist who had received 
treatment during his incarceration.
