Broken Diddle Stick removal from IF Can Core
#19

I'm not sure, I know there's someone in Mishawaka which is 2 towns over to the west of me, that I've dealt with in person a few times that last I checked he was over at VideoKarma (I'm not sure if he's a member here or not) and I've sold him some old TVs I've bought and or were given to me that I either got going or that I was unable to get going, but I can't remember his name and I'm not sure how to reach out to him.

As for just asking for help in general, I have a staff person that works with me from a local organization that works with people with disabilities, but the problem with him is that he's always offering to help me with some of my repair projects but yet he's absolutely afraid of the solder and he thinks that breathing the fumes from the solder will give you lead poisoning or something weird like that and is always telling me I should open a window when  I'm soldering so I don't breathe in the fumes from the solder, but I keep telling him that you aren't going to get lead poisoning from breathing solder fumes, you actually have to ingest (eat) the lead based item to get lead poisoning.
