Beveldown,
Welcome to NitroExpress! Strong entry too!

I you decide to do the barrels, I wouldn't hesitate a bit to sending it to Steve Bertram (bertramandco.com).
Steve and Menito have done a lot of work for me and they know what they are doing plus, Steve is a guild member so is a known guy. Take a look at my Dickson barrel they did for me here: http://forums.nitroexpress.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=184211&an=0&page=4#Post184211
