No........Would have jumped on this!

Is it so hard to take a photo of the item with your username(which is not your real name) and a date stamp? Or is this just a 64 year-old thing? Unfortunately, this is how we prevent scams nowadays. Don't be gullible and just be as cautious as we can. If it's legitimate I'd sure be happy to...

And on top of that, when and if the cutter gets wrecked, just swap the cutting bit out and it's good to go.

Still is!

What grit do you start "lighting sand" with?

Glad your mission was accomplished, it was an exciting read. All this reading is making consider a KW shaft as my maple is also 4.0oz and was initially worried about KW all coming in under 3.8oz.....You have given me something new to explore. Would you mind letting me know which maker is this?

Bringing this up. Does anyone have his new contact number?

"Cuemaker" is a stretch. PM if you want to know more.

Just remember that some brands have an extra pad at the top of the ferrule(namely Predator and Mezz) so don't take that off. Sometimes a small slip of the mind and there goes the pad.

Thanks for clarifying. Hopefully this puts everyone's worries at ease with regards to ordering from the website. I would urge anyone and everyone who has ordered tips either via email or through the website as Sheldon has done to make a post when they have received their order.

I'm curious and impressed as to how you guys are identifying a material based on the way it cuts. What are the parameters the materials are being cut at? Spindle speed, feed rate and insert type play a huge part in this ID-ing.

That's good to know. But this is via email correspondence and not ordered via the website directly?

Can this information be confirmed officially? Because last I emailed Richard from SIB, he said he was taking over production of the tips.

Congratulations!! Damn I haven't had time to order and try out any since you announced it here!

This is great news. Wishing you all the best Chris! Looking forward to some new toys!

My goodness how long is that channel? I've heard of this jig multiple times but this is the first I've seen the actual jig.
