Hi list,

I ordered my kit from an internet vendor last year, but I've lost the
instructions and I'm now hesitant to start building it. Is there anyone out
there who could scan them for me, and (e)mail them to me? Faxing would be great
too, (+31 71 5812647), but you'd have to be willing to fax to Europe...

Thanks for your help with this.
