Matt, I'm always willing to help. But I think you
missed the point. Whether you started the thread or not
is moot. Some threads need to be discussed and then
take on a life of their own because the issues they
raise are far greater than the initial question that
started the thread to begin with. As I stated earlier,
having a sled is the optimum situation. But not all
situations have optimum solutions. To stop because of
less than ideal solutions is no solution at all. Once
you know the machine and how it functions then you can
begin to deal with those problems that aren't covered
in books and FAQs. Creative machines sometimes need
creative attention. It's what separates us from the PC
world and the animals . . .
