Did you put this together?
Yes, initially put things together back in 2019.
Impressive work. Do you promote this much in Maxi circles?
Thanks, but no on the promo. I guess I don't know of maxi circles and not sure I'm much of a promoter anyway. I tend to be naive enough to think that something of value will reveal itself. 🙂
I'll see what I can do :-)
