Mike,Let me introduce myself to you and the rest of the group. My name is Phil Cianciolo. Like most Piet builders I have been planing this for years and have finally got my project underway. Recently I acquired several "A" blocks. Can't use them all and would like to sell or trade the extras. I have posted the information on the BPA website if you are interested. ________________________________________________________________________________
