Forget 'Baby on board'
Thread Starter: Rick Potter
I need a bumper sticker that says 'Nobody on board'. Tesla has opened up the 'self driving' app on newer Tesla's for a free 30 day trial. It is factory installed on all of them, they just don't turn it on unless you pay, which we didn't. All of a sudden there is an octogenarian who cannot...

Forget 'Baby on board'

Woodturning lathe for young adult nephews?

Chicago chapter of IAP is pretty active, with plenty of members in the Joliet/Kankakee zone. Would be worth checking in there as well. Good luck!!
