Sooooooooooooo, I had to come up with a 'Plan B'. I found something else that *should* work just fine (and only costs about $0.30 more per piece), but I didn't have enough time yesterday to confirm this for sure - so, I'm heading back over there later today to fit a bunch of them together and see if they will do the trick or not.

Damn, I wish I could make it now, sounds like it is going to be a good turn out. With the work situation how it is though, it'll take a miracle for me to get any time off in the coming weeks. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Update:Just so everyone knows, there's a [color:"darkred"][b]HALLO'wharrie Trading Post & Items For Sale Thread[/b][/color] at Planet Isuzoo. Time to clear out some much-needed space in all of those basements, garages, and storage buildings... ( or maybe buy a bunch of stuff to fill them up! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> ) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
