thank you, sounds amazing, speaking of drawing lines I started studying drafting and wanted to be a mechanical engineer but our first year drafting teacher was a tyrant - we are talking early 90's here and where my colleagues were using AutoCad he insisted on us learning how to draw everything in pencil cause when he went for his first job interview in the late 60s he was asked to draw free hand, what a total jerk that guy was !!! and so I became a keyboard jockey ie IT guy instead, so when ever I get to work with my hands, I jump on the opportunity - solving software issues by day and laying down horrible beads by night, ha ha
