In the bow of the carrier - the real one - there are 3 holes with raised and rounded rims. I do not know what to call them. I can not figure out how to replicate them. Any bright ideas???

Doug Bauer Poway, CA ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4) From SteveWiper@aol.com Subject Re Photo Quality Jim, Thanks for the input. That is very valuable information. I have saved to my hard drive. JUST KIDDING! I have actually printed it out and will try to do something about this, but this is a task I may not be able to afford with the 10,000+ digital photos I have in my personal archive, not to mention the storage space problem. I think in the end, we can only do so much. I just hope that once I am dead ( I know it is a let down to some of you that I will not live forever ), that my books might bring some excitement to some in a hundred years, or so. I would like my tombstone to say "Steve Wiper, passionate yes, humble, NO, so get the hell off my grave peckerhead!"
