Nahhh because the one in the wood is for my Instrument.

That's a cool setup air france!
Say, since you're quite the accomplished builder have you ever heard of people making their own video projectors from a LCD screen,
fresnel lens, triplet lens, and powerful (metal-halide) lamps? I learned about this a few months ago and I'm about ready to have one up
and running. Can't wait to play movies and fly the simulator on a 100" widescreen! I've already tested out my equipment to briefly see how
it works and I wouldn't have believed it untill I tried it. Here's some websites that you and the readers might like.
