i used 4 gauge car stereo cable that i had laying around the garage. anxious about the state of your leg. in the beginning you may want to attempt to have a rummage selling. then i realized they were talking hot taste-wise, but that sounded like it might be good, so i told him to bring it on. it will take longer, but you will build a habit of it for the years to come. as always, great mood, good music, useful information, pleasant guests and lots of surprises. they are the most intelligent small dogs.
