JPG40504 You took the words right out of my mouth. When it is all done and finished here come the comments. You never listen, that's not what I asked for, why can't you do it my way, etc. :( :( :( If a man speaks in the forest and there isn't a woman around, is he still wrong?:p

Well, since she called you, then you stand a chance. :D Besides, this was to good not to toss out some comments. :D We have to have our fun. Also since she called you, she must like your work. :)

When I called HER to pick up the kids picnic table I built for her. She was surprized that she got what she wanted. :D

You might build what you think she wants out of cheap stuff like pine 1X's or resawn 2X's. Kinda like doing prototypes like Norm.
