You sure are handy with your hands Sean. What type of hooks are those or did you make them also?

Thanks for the info. I hadn't seen those before. I've always used more rounded ones.

You have way too much talent for one man, Goatchaser! How about slingin' some of it to those of us with none? :wink: :biggrin:
Lately, if life were treating me any better, I'd be suspicious of it's motives!

Thankyou very much Nephew, it's great to hear comments like this, could be down to talent or the fact that I can't sit still for 5 minutes, always gotta be making/ doing something.
