Thanks for all the responses. Hans, thanks for the description of your technique. I'm now in seeker mode for the superhairdryer at yonder fleamarket. No, I'm not planning on an eBay kit sale... But unlike Allison three times over, I haven't had a chance to build one (I dont even have an altair yet, but I do have a few imsais)... and the zenness of seeing one apart is alluring. Let me be the first to wish you all a Merry Christmas.... for next year. Heh Mike: dogas(a)leading.net
