[TowerTalk] Help with antenna

[Jim Miller]

What about the stuff they use for standard cutting boards now?  It is cheap
and looks like it would just fine.  I just bought a small one to cut up and
test for strength but haven't gotten that far yet.  Has anyone used this
stuff and how did it work or why isn't it a  idea to use it?
