i got the center mount and motor opening done, now to cut the battery opening in the center of the mount. this is fun, and it's winter, i guy could get to really liking this. thanks again SJN. i made only 4 small slip cuts off of the preformed lines, but no one will see these! i am a perfectionest and i guess that is not practicle for a first timer. (did anybody hear me curse when i did that?) go slow and think clearly! baby steps!
