It's probably not that expensive and not nearly as expensive as buying a new PW. That's the kind of thing where you could buy the parts from PW and just do the assembly yourself. Robert

Just be glad it wasn't my dog, he can crush a ham bone with one chomp. You would be holding a handful of pieces. "Try to go out empty and let your images fill you up." Jay Maisel
