Just an update for those who ordered sanding/go-bar dishes. I have them done!



I have some more one piece sanding discs on order as well. I would recommend that you purchase a one piece sanding disc if you want to sand with these things. I tried to piece together some adhesive backed floor sanding pads but found that they lifted up the on the edges. When I went to take them off I found that they stuck quite well everwhere else and they took out chunks of my dishes. I just re-spun a thin layer off of them but you will have fill and sand if you don't have spinning capabilities. I think that John at Blues Creek might sell this paper as well. Mine are $20 per sheet for 80 grit in 24 inch diametre.

These dishes will be enroute to you all on Tuesday, once I have them all packaged!

Dave Bland, has the auction dish arrived yet? Have you used it?

Thanks

By the way, one of these dishes is double sided, 15/30 I think. So we can make these dishes also, in waht ever radii you want. Now, who would I get three radii on one dish?........

they look great, is the 15-30 (you think) double sided dish mine?

Luigi

It sure is Luigi, and it is indeed 15/30 and I think it turned out GREAT! I sure hope it works out well for you. It will be posted tomorrow. I am wrapping them up tonight, once the little fellas have gone to bed. Their help really slows me down!

Hi Shane,
Yes it has arrived...best made dish I've owned/seen so far. Keep up the good work! Shane...weren't you making me a second one at a discounted price ( you offered to sell at a disct. right after the auction?)? Please email me and let me know. Sorry about the slow response....I have been going crazy...it's tax season.

Sent it out today Dave, I will e-mail the invoice tonight. I was slower than I thought I would be. It was hard to find shop time over Christmas, the joys and frustrations of a young family. So I am sorry for the delay but it is on it's way!

Good to hear that the first dish meets you approval!

Thanks
