    thanks for your suggestions everyone. terry seems to do some great work based on what everyone is saying. only thing is, he is about an hour away from me. i would like to see what is around the south hills area first so if anyone knows a place near me that would be great for me

    I'm sure Terry is very good, but I also have a hunch that he isn't the only one in southwestern PA that can get it done right.

    talk to shadowstealth, he's in your area and he might be able to point you in the right direction if you really want to stay closer to home
