Thanks, the more the merrier....:) I'm kinda trying to do a speed build. Seeing how fast I can get this one done. :) Then it will be one to the KV-2, but I need to purchase some stuff for that build. I want to build that out of PVC sheets which means I actually have to buy PVC sheets first. I probably won't get around to that one until this winter after my wife and I finish buying our partners out at our pharmacy. That is going to eat up a lot of my time trying to transition from being a 10% partner to a 100% owner.
