Muffwiggler has 2 appropriate forums for this:
- For sale/trade: https://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=74
(100 post history required to post here)
- DIY Trade Thread [ Parts, PCBs, Panels ]:
https://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=86223 (just have
to be a registered wiggler)
