Hi Graham!

There was some postings about this a while back, I think I made a post about using round pads...can't remember the dimensions now.

When I get back on Friday, I'll give you the dimensions from a gerber that I have on my 'pooter at work. They work really well...

Didn't catch-up with Ed Valentine today to see how things went with him and Minnie. Might be because he slept in...hehehe.
