Thanks for the suggestions on cutting stainless.

1)  I'm the first to admit that cheap tools are false economy.  I have bought
a few GOOD holesaws but I didn't have the right size, so I used one from the
el cheapo set I bought at Harbor Freight for some ungodly low price.  It was
late Sunday night and it was all I had.  I'll pick up a good hole saw next
time and see if I get better results.  Thanks, Matt.  (The only reason I
haven't tossed the el cheapo set is that it works reasonably well on the
non-metals.)

2)  I have some Cool Tool cutting fluid which says on the bottle it is good
for both aluminum and stainless.  It definitely helps on the hole saw cuts
thru aluminum -- in fact I can't get the job done without it -- but I didn't
try it on the stainless because I didn't want to saturate the fiberfrax.  
Next time I'll try it.  Thanks for the reminder, Ted.

3)  Two responses on cabin heat valves.  Thanks, Bob and Bob.  One says it
works great even with the leaks, and the other says it barely works at all.  
It would be nice to hear more opinions on this one.
