1 hr. completing the threading of the air lines and putting wire ties on them.  My tech counselor is coming tomorrow afternoon so then I'll be able to move ahead more aggressively.

Happy New Year everyone!  May you and yours have a happy, healthy and prosperous 2016!!

With a bit of plastic tubing you can make nice standoffs between two lines.
