I agree and the same thought crossed my mind. However, while I am by no means a perfectionist, I am a get it as close as possible-ist. So I'm going to mess around with it for a while longer just to see if I can increase my current frustration level. Got my kid's science kit microscope out and found some issues with the HP seat. Ordered a new seat from Bryan. Victory will be mine!

Whereas before I was ignorant, I am now informed. Makes sense. Here is another pic taken in daylight so it is a little clearer.captain wrote: ↑Sun Feb 11, 2018 11:40 amThe suction muscle is the diaphragm. There is truth in what the USD executive said.
