Looking good Matt. Thanks for the heads up. Can't wait to see it wet.

It looks like my plans for a nano will have to wait. Paying for a wedding and two house moves in 6 months has hit...

Careful with those rics around the acan hceiv. A ric can burn its way through a small acan colony. Not a danger unless it's touching of course, but if you don't notice small rics getting...
