If I’m not mistaken I think a lot of guys cut them down or do something to modify them.

My father read them olt instructions and somehow turned kak kak kak into kaw kaw kaw.
Listening to my father call ducks on his olt set me back 25 years. Kaw kaw kaw....doesn't work.
:lol:

If you want a cutdown like that say so. Adam Tudor cut one for me that is Herman munster size and I'm just a hobbit.

some are...but heard of bad reports from some buyers....mostly to do with bad tone boards....I'd never spend any real $$$ for a purchase there....I much prefer buying from members on call sites :beer:

I've got a 2000 square foot shed to clean and no trashcan.
No service and tons, I mean TONS, of trash.
Want a lathe from Octave Chanute afb? Three-phase motor but my electrical engineer dad has it running on household current somehow. Must be weak.
