My name is Ken D. PattonI won the Mini Trammel. In the interest of DCPA, I will let anyone who wants to process their ore concentrates through it for 10%, and we can weigh it at my house. My time, effort, and wear on it has to be considered and it is only guaranteed for one year. This has to pay for the next one if there is one. Your ore can be ¼ of an inch or smaller, you will,also, be responsible to help me clean it up after we are through. Call me and we'll arrange for a time when it is convenient to both of us. When you are ready to come, call and I will give directions to my house. Sincerely Ken P. P.S. We'll try this But if you cause me any problems it will end. 7/10 This space could be great for Your Ad!
