So long as you put the leaders on the work bench and hold your hands over the work bench, there shouldn't be a problem.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-05-2001 01:19 AM                     How about standing on a chair? Really. Sounds silly but it'll work.  |  IP: Logged James R.
