At least your outlets are grounded, my setup comes from an ungrounded outlet. I'm going to see if I can run a new circuit one of these days to the far side of the room. At least I have easy access to a ground rod outside.<br>

<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Weed, you will be happy to know that I have figured
out a way to get another support strap and bracket onto the "Big Chimney". This
should help to steady the new stack considerably. As long as the chimney doesn't
crumble; I have heard that that CAN happen.....</font></div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Four straps and brackets and a lot of prayers
everytime we get a big storm! The next thing I have to work on is running
the new ground wire that has been sitting in storage for 5 years and driving
ground rods. Yes thats correct, the "main stack has been un-grounded for 5
years.... I know, I know....but what are you gonna do?</font></div>
