Why not just get a "Clapper" ?? :lol_hitti :shocking:

With my shop being wiped out in Hurricane Katrina, I just got a copy of the insurance adjustment. They appraised a 24 X 24 that had to have a 75' + tall tree that's over 5' in iameter removed from the roof, then demo the building, haul off the debris and then rebuild it with insulation...

A big Thank You to Rickairmedic for helping me out on this.
