thanks for the comments. I think I might have to wait and see what our crappy economy is going to do. I work for a company that make electronic connectors, for almost any kind of application, including military, and nasa, and things have definately slowed down. And the money I planned on spending this kit, has been going towards new tires for the bike I replaced the back tire, and within 30 miles already had a puncture. and this key issue. Hopefully soon I can get serious about getting the kit. chris
