Arran,
Maybe it'll work.
However if thinking about it, I suspect that curling the split part while over wood relies on two things: curls are notas readily straighten when pulled, and wood provides more friction plus the curls digging into it, which also prevents straightening.
Metal is smoother than wood so there will be no digging in.
Though it still might work. Especially considering this radio is not as heavy plus notgoi g to be carried around too much.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
