Thanks Dick. This is pretty much what I had evisioned making and your details have encouraged me. I probably have everything needed to quickly make one too.

Last night I discovered the Universal Carrier Base and am considering purchasing the plans for it. Have you tried one? I am not sure exactly how it will work for me but it does look interesting. I watched some videos and scanned through the PDF about it. I would appreciate your advice. PM me if you would like to be more private about discussing things (or email me?)
The coffee is ready here now.....it has a sirens call. Thanks again for helping me.
