I might go that way. For now I'm awaiting word back from John. Says he might have some of the acrylic tubing available--pre bent. Other than the slight yellowing I've never had any problems with the acrylic units.

It could be your email software setup. When the list software sends out the emails to us all, it makes the reply-to field of the email to be kitfox-list@matronics.com, not the individual who sent the mail to the list. Maybe your email client is modifying that. What do you use for email? Outlook, Outlook Express, or a web based reader? Let me know.
