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.

Well, since she called you, then you stand a chance.

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.
