Marcos Maniacs

Carol,

Glad you found us!  Ron Mcleod is the info man on the Mantis.  He 
has owned his for close to 30 years I believe.  He may be on 
vacation at the moment or I'm sure he would have contacted you.

We are always searching for Marcos here in the US and Canada and 
finding a Mantis is an added bonus.

If I had some time I might drive up to Calgary from here in northern 
California and take a look but I'm busy at the moment.

Hopefully Ron will reply soon.

Another good resource is Mark Saxby in England.

Good luck,
