Thank you Sir, but I'm a puppy crawling up to the big dog's bowl here! Some of the most simple advice really makes things easier! Want to thank Big B for telling me to try 4 panels instead of 3, made a world of difference!

Looking good Daniel!  :bigup: The more you do it the easier it gets but the longer it seems to take  :down1: That's my experience with it so far.

Looking good Daniel, especially for the 2nd call you've checkered. There's some really good checkered areas in there, and some areas where a bit more practice will help straighten it up. Keep at it. If you have any questions, post them up here and we will help resolve them. It took me about 10 calls worth of checkering to get the "feel" for the tools. Keep after it. You are good at it.
