No rain threatened this year’s show, and there were a lot of vendors out - including some with a good deal of test equipment and other items. Lots of goodies, and everyone seemed willing to be negotiable on prices. My fellow show-goer and I spend the morning wandering around before heading over to the greasy spoon next door for some late breakfast grub and coffee.
I tried not to bring home much, but some stuff still wandered into my car. There are a few pieces I would have like to brought home, but space didn’t allow me to do so and they sadly had to remain where they were.
Here are my pictures of the event, and I’ll be posting my haul shortly.
Next show is the Findlay show, which always has some good stuff (assuming no rain!)
