With the talk about magnets, etc. I started thinking (Danger Will Robinson Danger)¡ ? Perhaps judicious application of heat to the pin/neck may get the two pieces closer together as well. ? As a word of warning (for lack of better wording). I would be a bit concerned on the neon transformer idea (not a technically based or engineering rigorous concern)¡. the solution if it works will be one that is low enough in current to tack the two together but not melt the heater/other parts in the process. A high voltage on a cap ¡°sounds right¡± where a transformer supplying constant current ¡°sounds wrong¡± for what that is worth. ? Anyway, I wish you both good luck and hope you do get¡¯er done. Rob ?

Sounds fairly close in width to mine, gap-wise.
Bummer. I live about 40 minutes away from Bal'mur, in southern MD. ;-)
