Thank you for the reply. I read your "n00b" guide more than once. You are the reason I decided to post here as opposed to all the other sites. (enough encouragement from me I'm in the finance field,so numbers work very well for me. I'm still working on clearing out the room and then I have to paint it. I hope i can tap your knowledge if the need should arise. I'm a fellow New Englander; I feel that you may understand that quality is always better than quantity.
