Are you building it from scratch or did you buy a kit?

Heh it qualifies as an experimental Frenchy, and has to be inspected on a regular basis  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/eek.gif)

Hopefully i can see it this summer

Frenchy,

I need your email addy.

Warning though, these are LARGE files, so they will take a while to download.

Another option would be for me to send the book to you and let you use it til you are done.  Let me know which way you want to go.
