    12, if nobody's said 12, I'm guessin' it, cuz 12 is a nice round number, it follows 11, and it's what a kid is before they turn 13, so 12, even steven, 12.000000000000000

    Getting lots of guesses from all over the country.

    Challenge now that one of my two splitters had the HD pump go up, but gave me 15 years of service, so no complaints. To kill that pile I will need both splitters going full on Saturday, but hoping to get repairs made by Saturday. Otherwise may take me a a few extra days to finish pile to announce winner, but I will get it done.

    I just saw this and was thinking I'd go 9.6, but seems it's been close with some folks - I'll go 10.21 cord - perhaps already taken, but I ain't checkin'! Great idea for a thread and generous! Cheers!

    Alright gang, signing off for the night, but will check back in mid week. So far 40 guesses in. Will post final list of everyone and their guesses on Friday night!

    P.S. 70 degrees here today and sunny, pile may have cured and checked +/- .002%
