Hey Ron,
have you folks put together some good instructions for that kit yet?

Are you still selling them with no instructions? From what I am hearing
there a few "details" folks are having to figure out on their own.   Perhaps
you could ask for some feedback on what instructions should be included from
those who purchased and later had to spend the time sortng things out.

Doug
