Thanks Gilli.  Fearghus offered to pick up some UHMW for me but I don't know
when we could get together for me to pick it up so I guess I'll go with
Baldars.  That will save me a little time and I need to get these things
done!  I guess I'll use my wood shaft Baldars for "flights".  Is that period
or what?

Oudoceus
