Tool Shed

Our chapter keeps a shared collection of tools, aircraft parts, and materials that members can borrow for their projects. On the old website this page was called Tool Crib.

How to borrow

Contact Rick Stoffel to borrow tools: toolcrib@eaa430.org.

The old page did not list borrowing rules, loan periods, or fees. If you know the current practice, please tell the web editors so we can add it here.
