Brian:

Dave is just trying to make things easier for you. His words of wisdom come from many years of maintaining his fleet of twenty-seven Porsches (or is it thirty-two now? I'm probably guessing low, as I have not been to his house for two days...), as well as helping out at least a couple of strays who wander into his garage every Saturday and Sunday.

What you are proposing is fine, he was just trying to let you know you don't need to go through that if you don't want to. Not everyone is comfortable playing with fire, or handling metal pieces that are a couple hundred degrees.
