D'you know I didn't notice that until you pointed it out Hamid. Thanks! That makes a lot of sense, although mine still tends to burn the bread at the top before the bottom is done! All part of the charm (I think
) EDIT: Having looked again at the photo of mine in post #1, the elements are wound less densely in the middle, but are closer together again at the top!
Nice collection too- there are some really interesting models out there, and of course you can never have too many....
