Default Chris Wickersham's Tech Articles

A friend sent me a link to the Santa Anita's Model A club with a list of technical articles by Chris Wickersham. These are well written, not too technical, and will answer most of the questions that keep re occuring on this forum.

Between Chris Wikersham's and Tom Endy's articles, the Santa Anita A's are a fantastic source of information. We as a group are very very fortunate that these two gentlemen, and the Santa Anita A's, are so generous with their time and expertise.
