Re: STT to VT

Hey Dentoid,

Thanks for the link - I had read that one a few times before. Not much in it about leveling tanks though. I've left things unlevel - Its close enough where I don't think it will be a problem. Cross your fingers.

Have you seen this thread? There may be something you can use in here.
