D dbscrapper New Member Oct 10, 2011 22 0 0 ontario Apr 30, 2012 #6 Thanks for the offer Chainmaker. However shipping would likely be expensive to my part of the country to Northern Ontario Canada. that is unless you live within a couple of hundred miles from me. buffalo is 300 miles north to my location.
