Hey Mike,

Now you are scaring me! I can answer "yes" to almost every question and several more that you did not ask!

The "no"?? I am not addicted [and if you believe that... I have a bridge for sale ;-)]

Keep on building!!!

Hank

P.S. Another question for the list: Do you make your own paddles?
