Heck, free fall from 15 feet would only be a bit over 20mph terminal velocity and ramp friction would slow it down considerably. Ed should have not trouble catching it at the bottom  Cool

Rotfl funny guys! I got a good laugh and I needed it after the crappy day I had at work.

Tomorrow is hopefully the day, Saturday morning at the latest. I need to work around my brother's schedule but he's quite flexible so I'm hoping for tomorrow so I have the weekend to figure out where all of the parts go. 17428
