Actually I sent that from the web, but I thought my dad had
fixed it. This
is coming from my email program so if it's still in caps, please
let me know.

Yeh, it should because hoses can only flex so much.

Very valid point. I had vaguely considered this but it really
does make
more sense to do it that way. And yes it would make the most
sense
to just mirror(although I always forget which #s to change, so
if you'd
be kind enough to tell me I'll write it down this time :) I
know it's
probably in your tutorial, but I haven't really had time to read
it yet, sorry)
