When you wrote that you had rigged the undercarriage I thought that you were joking.....until I took a closer look!! I am not surprised that your hands shake after doing that kind of work - mine would shake too much before I would even start to do that!!

Ondra, as I've said before, this is nothing short of sheer wizardry!  In the middle ages, you would have been burned at the stake for committing such acts!  You, my friend, are not a mere mortal.
Cheers,
Bud
