List of AA Tools

StPeteDean · MIP Old Timer

Hi Holly, welcome to the board. Feel free to post the list here, if you can. Create a thread. We also have a "sticky thread" above with all kinds of AA stuff, speaker tapes, links etc... that it could go in.

I did the cut and paste thing....but it didn't show up. I also sent it to Dean...maybe he can get it to post.

After a one hour meeting...the list had 28 tools...now its at 89.

Maybe the post is to long for this board.

I hope everyone add to it!!!

By the way...it's only been going on a week and I'm the one sending it out and I don't have any virus. I never thought about that someone could send me a virus in regards to this ...yuck.
