jtrouse, jim1nz is the guy you need to talk to or rather write to, as his user name suggests he's based in NZ, right now he's globe trotting around prob Sweden or some such...but he's right into the splicing thing and would be able to give you some pointers. Your best bet is to send him a private email (pm).
TrevMcrev is in Victoria not sure if he is into splicing though.

Jim may be abit hard to get a hold of at the moment - as Boa said he's trotting the globe in sweden atm.

I know of a yank that ss pretty darn good when it comes to splicing... He can splice anything. nickaraya@hotmail.com is his email. Email him and he'll gladly help you, or if you have MSN messenger/Windows live messenger just add him and ask him for tips.

These guys might be of help, but whether or not they want to give away this knowledge is another thing.

And when you learn you can come and show me!
