| Thanks for using the C word Brad, I don't dare. :) I made a few prototypes trying to make X shaped sections with no success. I just slapped it together in about a day and a half. 247 hits and 5 guestbook entries since putting it up this afternoon. (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.arch)
