Earlier I had the information on my page, but about a year ago I took it of because i wasn't sure it was right. I believe they are right, but I can't remember from where i had the information Embarassed
This is the information that was:

A: Glas...... From ch. number 20-000001 until 20-012342.
B: "Plastic" From ch. number 20-012243 until 20-070431.
C: "Plastic" From ch.number 20-070432 until 20-117901.
