 Thank you very much. I don't count the PADs manually as I just add them to the spreadsheet I made and it adds it all up for me. If you want a copy just send me a private message and I can get it to you. I don't know how to add documents on a google drive for people to use. But I'll try and figure it out so that I can add it to the 2024 thread's homepage and people can use it from there.Makingabobor2 said:Yes, should be ok.
