I use Ken Donnel in Findlay, IL. 217-738-2298. He does nice work, his fee's are reasonable but it is best to time your work to the farming season.

IMHO either of these two ladies can do exactly what you are looking for. Both are very talented, do superb work and are very reasonable for what you get. Both are members of the ACGG as checkering specialists.

Bill's either out there somewhere on a board, standing, or at the ring in one sense or another, trust me.

"Yeeee haaaa!; listo?"

A fine guy w/a lovely bride; sorely missed in ways not easily expressed and never forgotten.
