Being the freshman last year I did most of the grunt work. "I want you to cut 40 bars of stainless steel by hand!!!" I was sore after the 5th and I'm glad it was "only" .25" thick. And therefore I didn't have too much experience with the "specialty" jobs.
Sorry if I wasn't too clear with my first answer: Yes using the kit solenoids will work.
