[time-nuts] TAPR Oncore M12+ kit

[Jerry Hancock]

One other point, if you have the plates and just need them milled, that is pretty easy work.   I could make the model from the drawings and then just run them off.  The only challenge is that something always goes wrong no matter how careful I am so ideally, it would be best to be able to purchase the end plates separately.
