Official Luthiers Forum!

Hi everyone,
Following Walter's and some other's advice I bought some nice leather for sharpening chisels. I have quite a bit left so if anyone wants some I am charging $12 for two pieces approximately 9" x 14" in dimension. Shipping cost is $4 USPS priorty mail anywhere in the US. I have the whole side as they say in the business. I will ship out of US but then you have to pay actual cost. The leather is Natural, No oil, Heavy saddle weight 13 oz. smooth on one side, suede on the other. So total price is $16 including postage. Paypal is accepted. If no one buys any I guess I'll have to start making shoes or sandles or something.

Hi everyone,
I made an error in size of the leather. Since I am shipping in a USPS priority envelope I can not ship 14" x 18" pieces it won't fit. So I am including an xtra piece approx. 6 x 4 to make up the difference. So the cost is same $16 total... includes shipping just the size is a little smaller. I will gladly refund anyone's money if you have paid me and this is not acceptable. please let me know right away. !!! THANKS.

John, you already tried that, but hey, go ahead and send those chisels to me. I'll take care of you. (besides, I need some to practice on before I do mine!)

Bruce and JJ thanks very much for helping me out. Since the pieces are smaller (roughly 8x10) than I originally advertised ( due to mailing constraints) I decided to send everyone three pieces instead of two. The stuff is good quality. I have three more "sets" still for sale. If they don't sell I will be the new Siesta Sandle King! Please don't let that happen... order today it's only $16 and that includes the shipping USPS PRIORITY MAIL. Just think how nice it will be to have sharp chisels! THANKS FOLKS!

Thanks Don A.,
Mucho appreciated! One less pair of sandles. Hey I ordered more Hard Shellac and got an email from them today...no go...they won't ship anymore to US unless it's to a distributor. So I ask what does it take to become a distributor? I am told initial purchase of $5000.00au which converted means about $3700.US I don't think I like the stuff enough...at least not $3700. worth.

Put me down for a set. I'll drop you a Paypal.
Thanks
Nelson

Oh heck, I'll take the last set. Botheration. I just can't see chasing it down myself. I'll send Paypal asap.

I guess now I have to go buy some chisels.....

Dave for that cost it would have to be the wonder finish I don't know though, could I write it off on Form 179

No! That's what makes it even worse it would be considered an "inventory" item used in the manufacturing process. I would actually have to pay tangible tax to the state of Fl. on it every year for as long as it lasted!!!!!!!!
