I want to thank Barry (and Harvey, who I didn't know had taken over
operation of the group). I'd done more postings in my early days, back
when I had to replace bearings, and eventually get Pete Brush (whom I
essentially vetted for Chris Wood) to repair my controller board.
Uploaded the photos to help others.
If one just looks upon the existing group as a message board, there's no
need to migrate. If photo & file uploading, and the othe features are
desired, then I guess groups.io is the current plan B. Either eay, I'll
follow.
Graciously,
Jim E.
Lakewood, Calif.
All Hail Rube Goldberg!
