Your going to start something here. lol
I did a search awhile back for the cold rainy days here in La. I found several suppliers of kits (of a sort), with plans and most of the block materials to be used in the machining. The machining from the plans look straight forward and look to be basic machining 101. Having access to a small lathe and mill would be a must for some of those little beasts tho. If I find the disk I saved the info on, I'll post back. Don't hold your breath, being single I'm not much on filing and finding. LW
