Steve, please send that to me in a PM. Thanks

We are now up to 69 as far as I can tell (including Steve Smith).

When we cross the threshold, I will put the final list together and let you all double check it. Remeber to use sku# from AST website!

Also, as I said, I will do everything to ship cheap. You may request insurance. Probably not a bad idea. Those in foreign countries will need to walk me through the customs stuff.

This is a great idea, Mike. I'm thinking of running paua around the top on the next one. What size do you guys use -- the .047 or the .063? Also, on a redwood top do you prefer green or blue shell? Yeah, my design sense and decisiveness are running at a high level this morning. Should I use cream or leave it black?
Thanks for the opinions!

Id be down for a few pieces. How many strips does it take to go around a top (roughly sj size), and two line rosette? Six?
I already have a single piece of each of the paua and abalone types... nice stuff.

I have a policy never to buy in a group buy-in, but there are always exceptions to policies, so possibly my new policy is called the "One time group buy-in policy".

I'd like to partake in twelve (12) orders too if twelve fits your policy.

I'm in for 20 of the 0.079" Paua item number ZF-P-079. PM sent.

I'm making the gross assumption that the 0.079" stuff is included in the deal, since you said to pick the SKU....please let me know if that's not the case.

Thanks for taking this on for us Mike - I promise I'll be a patient customer and not nag!!

Cheers,
Dave F.

Good question... Been thinking about that. How about this Wednesday, 6pm CST? Ok, no point in asking... So that is the end date.

Remember, what I need is the sku# and the count. I do not care about color or size. Each sku# is unique so it will be a no brainer for me and insure you all get what you want. If u have not done that yet, please do so soon. Thanx!!
