On ebay at the Mo is one of Ronald Valentines Thermal Hopper mounts.
Not only is it a work of art I'd say it'll be one of those "OMG I could have bought
one of those for 20 bucks and stuck it in a drawer" items in 40 years time.
I don't know when he made them but it hasn't been CNC'd so it's probably already
10+ years old.
For the rest of you who might not be here in 40 or 50 years time it's a cracking
example of a craftsman from a time when people still actually made 'stuff'.

First you'd need to live in a Zoo to actually use it.
Second if you had to, its an easy 3mm drill bit.
