<VV> Installing Dog Dishes - PROBLEM

[J R Read_HML]

I suppose it could be a problem if you work in an auto repair shop changing 
lots of wheels (and hub caps).  I DO use a rubber mallet on full wheel 
covers, but I think the whole thread started because someone complained 
about denting the dog dishes with a mallet.

Later, JR
