^^^What he said. I just turned the key in the lock for last weeks thread. Looks like a cool morning here. Scott, too bad it's not cost effective to do that demo live. It would really spook some folks.

It's cost effective to do it live as long as it's someone else's money!

Would you believe it would have been a little over $120 if I had to buy all the material for that little thing?

Send some of that weather down here, its in the mid 60's and Im all giddy. Wanting it cooler real bad. High 40's low 50's would be perfect right about now.

Not me, I'm just a slow typist. I actually was referring to Scott's previous comment about doing the room by hand, but somebody else posted before I could finish.

Lowes gave us everything. They're one of our sponsors and that's how they sponsor us instead of giving us money.

Thats good of them. I always shop Lowes, not sure why but I just cant find anything in that other place with all the orange. Lowes might be a little more expensive, but I find it quite better.
