Can we do away with Imperial units while we're at it?
In Australia 6351 alloys have effectively been banned, nobody will fill, inspect or test them. In fact all alloys over 15 years old have been classed as unsafe and will not be filled tested or inspected. Having said that they are still out there and it has become a problem for new players. People that have them and haven't used them for a while are finding out that they can't be filled and then selling them on eBay without disclosing the age or the fact that they can't be used.
