In reply to: Catherine, KK6UFX posted an update in the group General Is there a way for people to get the chips produced by the chipper program? A friend of mine, Logan Payne, needs like 10 yards of chips. Please let me know. Thanks, ViewCatherine,

I have one of those digital inline meters like Angelo…[Read more]
