Thanks for all the support everyone. Again, this site has been an incredible resource for an amateur. Aside from my posts, I answered countless questions by scouring previous posts on the site.

MoonDawg - I had some hesitation as first because it was in pieces and I had never owned one let along worked on one. Plus, it was 400 miles from my house so I had to buy it site (and seller) unseen. But, as Slider Bob said, I stole this machine at $600.
