Had 14 division in here first thing this morning, amazingly clear contact coming across the pond. Sure would like to see you post about the construction of your loop narfedwards1.

As soon as as a mod no longer needs to approve your posts you will be able to post pics, change your avatar, etc., editing your posts takes a little longer.
