    Congrats Alex. It's a lot of hard work and personal sacrifice, but well worth it.

    We celebrated tonight by making a couple of hot fitting tongs out of some broken GE clinchers.

    If you are using GE Mikel then cut 2 inches off the handles.....then draw the reins down. It's only half hour job. I'm sure it makes fitting better.
