  • Tech Tip Friday - Resin Buying in Uncertain Times
    2025/06/27

    Today's TTF covers buying resin in our current (and uncertain) times. Despite being what Kurt would call a buyer's market, please remember to allow the seller to cover their costs, so they can continue to provide their support and service. It doesn't have to be a zero sum game. Everyone can have a small win.
