    Be as specific as possible as to what you want to do, how you plan on doing it, etc. I am sure someone will chime in to help. Please do not create several threads all pertaining to your build, it will help keep the forums from getting cluttered and help those who want to help you better understand your dilemma.

    Good luck with your project and I look forward to seeing more.

    If you are looking for information understanding terminology see the faq section:
