- From James Cooper
- I would like to recognize Kevin Bedore for his patience, diligence, and assistance this month. When he discovered our good shop vac had been used improperly - it was uncleaned and filled with an oily substance which had fouled the filter and the drain plug was missing - not only did he contact us to let us know, but he took it upon himself to fix it - he cleaned it out, bought a new filter and drain plug, and went on to clean up not just the mess he had made but the rest of the dirty room too. It is members like Kevin who make Techworks a nice place to work on projects. We need more members like Kevin. Thank you, Kevin, from all of us at Techworks.
