Uh Oh. Sounds like you're leaning a little bit left there, Cart.  :lol:  Rad

Not near as impressive as this save, IMO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoSGzLii0KM  :)  Rad

I'm pretty sure you are allowed to do this.  :twisted:  I would recommend George Dibos at Precision Pipe Repair or Ronnie B at Night Owl Pipe Works. Rad
