1 Answer

Answer :

I could probably do this if you don’t mind that it would be ugly. Give me a few days to try and work something out. I will need to make a trip to Home Depot. But if anyone has a better solution that would be great. And If I can get it to work I would like to be reimbursed for parts and shipping.
