Hey gang,

Rob reached out to me (thank you Rob) and set me straight. This one particular station had one whole half cut askew due to a misalignment on the original registration marks...I thought I was meticulous about that, but apparently I got distracted just enough to miss that one very very important step (perils of letting the kids help daddy).

Believe me, I love gadgets as much as the next person, but I've grown quite fond of string guides...I find that the issues with alignment have more do with the builder than the system itself - yet another priceless nugget I've learned in this fun project :)

I'm off to Staples to reprint the station (yes multiple copies and a fireproof biometric locked tube to go with it!!!) then it's back to the cutting board.

I couldn't sleep last night knowing how I close I am to laying down the first strips :) wooo!!!

Thanks again folks!
