thanks, Phalpal!
i'll let you know the next time i'm in your area

did you post a how-to before? or if you've posted previously on mount work, please let me know so i can go through it.
in hindsight, this SLC had an excellent root base -
perfect for mounting. alas, i got cold feet about not maintaining the right humidity for it.
i'll have to find a different 'victim' for that
