Looks like I will have to build one because of the extra costs ( I am married remember) of flying over to inspect it and transport cost to Australia. I could build one here for less money and probably more suited to my needs. I just wanted to get away from building again. Must be getting lazy in my old age or maybe I just know the effort it takes to build. A friend of mine has shown interest in building one with me so that should keep me inspired. Thanks again for you effort.
