Thanks gents:

I have purchased Pete Hiatts wood in the past and can vouch for its beauty and its value - as I have a LOVELY stick in my gun closet awaiting my "super-dooper" NID project gun.

Jon and Jim: sigh.... running a business, single dad life of chauffering and riding herd on my girls, and studying and getting ready for grad school ... I havent a great deal of time, so while the semi-inlet route appeals money wise, Id like to finish this project before retirement.

Thanks for the suggestions... Ill holler at Pete.

Regards

GKT
