Absolutely! We'll be repeating a lot of the basics again at the next session, because in my experience the first try never goes perfectly and somebody's going to have to do it over, and it goes for me too. I'll also be working on my own screen projects at the shop tonight and tomorrow night after 5 o'clock. Feel free to stop by and I can go over it with you on any of these occasions.<br>
