Hi John
Many thanks I seem to be getting bogged down in other things right now, when I get back from holiday I am hope to get alot more done.
If you are starting again even if you are just planning RWYB I would still build it to the SFI spec 8.5 sec at least, they are really primerily good practice, they also mean if you come to sell it on you can get it tagged which considerably increases it's second hand value. The final thing is, loose it at 100+ mile an hour in RWYB of a full MSA event the resulting impact is the same, I would be happier to know I had the tubes where they did me the most good. The SFI specs actually help alot for design and getting it to look right.
Best regards
Mike
