Heh - a solid 5 seconds of work and I get props. My kinda gig!
It's well deserved, thank you.
Just remember that 5 seconds fondly the next time you have to spend a ridiculous amount of time cleaning up a thread that has rambled into coo-coo land. 
Thank you @Beej and everyone who was involved in the background!
Thanks to all participants for your help and inspiration! You all built great basses and choosing which one is the best is not really possible or fair!!
Thanks also to everyone else who participated with good advice and help! In my case these are especially @Bruce Johnson and @Jeff Siddall
I didn't finish, unfortunately, but that wasn't my point. I learned a lot and that's what counts! Thanks a lot!

I think I may have missed something along the way, because my assembly build isn't in the running, but it was completed weeks ago.
