You're on, but you'll have to come and get it, and it will be miller64 because I'm diabetic. And most think it needs at least one trip less thru the horse. :) We'll drink one while I'm showing off my mess in the garage. I don't have real estate enough to build a bigger one, and a 14x24 has just one trail thru it about 2 to 3 feet wide. The rest is an assortment of cnc and woodworking stuff. > Cheers > -- t Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
