Your own fault Maury. The thread was started by FT and had "Project" in the title. Should have known better than to open it using dial-up :)

:lol: :lol: :lol:

[-=DoW=- Body Piercer]

FT I've seen air conditioners that mount in windows smaller than that! You should really test it out and see how cool you can keep one of your rooms :banger:

[-=DoW=- cecoto]

FT is that a workmate i see or a swish cheese. :lol:

[-=DoW=- SmokieRat]
