BTW I'm a big guy with a bad back and it was a real blessing; too bad it got totalled 3 years later.

That is a good enough reason; if it saves ten more minutes of agony it's worth it! It might be kind of satisfying paying the thing back a bit too, with a 2x2  I will try it that way next time. I am big too and I hate the treatment I get under there.
FixedItRight,
Thanks a ton for sending your help in even though you don't have your TS anymore. Do you have another one? They are good machines; I would get another one for sure, at the right price.
