Hey,
We must have been on at the same minute, because yours wasnt there when i hit the button, but you beat me to the top of the thread. Strange. Better to double up than not answer at all, hey?

"LIKE"
Since this ain't FB, I thought I'd throw that out there.
Hope the double-check comes out on your side!
Remember always, it's not us. We didn't weld it, YOU did. All we can offer is words of experience and encouragement.
