Christian,

It should be written "37 point 7" and 60 point 7", and not with a comma...after all, this is not the E.U.  :patriot:  :icon_smile_wink:

I finished work today at 4pm and headed to my folks.
I checked my mail and saw that the shipper confirmed the arrival.
Guess what I am doing after work tomorrow.... head my @ss over to the warehouse and take pics.
That's the fastest I can, bud!  ;)

Skip, it's an hour away :shruggy: but pretty nice cruise to that city.
