    My Version of the MES 30 mailbox Modification just shorter

    Well, I have done just about everything to make my MES 30 do everything I want.  Of course, the #1 problem is that no one wants to feed wood chips all night long in the tiny little opening on the side of my MES 30 especially if you have a long smoke.  BORING!! Fix Step 1:  It was suggested to...

    First Smoke with MES and AMAZN-P
