I am. There is a picture of a tester in one of my EAA books also. I live in AK and buy local Sitka spruce. I was going to buy some aircraft grade spruce from Wicks or somebody and build a tester and then compare mine to the store bought stuff before I used it. I have some local spruce with 35 rings to the inch.
