Hey guys.

First batch of black Nuppin sleeves starting to ship out. Pic posted on the other thread. Man, these were more challenging than I expected. Most of my patinas have a lot going on in them, these black one really showed everythings, getting a uniform black took some work. That said, I think they turned out quite well.

"Fancy" patina Nuppin sleeve run just a couple days out :)

Your work is beautiful! I'm looking forward to seeing the Nuppin sleve. I would like to have one in a burl wood look if your making any.

BTW, how come the shop available patina thread is closed?

Hey 73. I was trying to make that thread one that only shows available pieces, and keep all the talk over here so it's easy to see what's available. I am likely going to revisit that strategy very soon.

As over Nuppin, I am making done wood burl like sleeves, they are my favorite to make. You want to get on the list? Got a couple burls coming up soon ;)

If you haven't already, jump over to the available patinas thread and check it out in action, just ignore the dirty drip tip and dust :/

Here's a super macro closeup of it. You can see marks on the atty top that my eyes can't percieve, it's so close in. The sleeves came out great :)

I'd like to get your opinions here on something. There are soon to be a batch of fancy Nuppin sleeves ready to release. I have a small list of people waiting for one, and there will be an extra or two available. I was thinking of putting them all up at once on the Available thread, and leaving the thread open for those on the list to select theres via reply to the pic. I've kept that thread closed to keep continuity, but thought this may be a cool way to do it; when your # comes up, you get 1st pick of what I've got ready.

What do you all think? Any other suggestions?

I would keep pics and comments separate, as I feel that was the problem with the original thread. Too many comments and the product just got lost in the pages. If someone would like to purchase something they should just pm you and then you can comment in the other sub forum, or here, as to what has been sold and whats still available. Just my :2c:

Thanks! That's seemed to have worked well so far, although I can't seem to delete sold items from the shop thread...

I wouldn't worry about deleting the pic over there, just as long as you keep everyone updated here as to what is available or sold as you did in the post above this one... Is there anyway to edit the post to add that it was sold? You do have a door over there that just captivates me every time I look through that thread... I won't say which one, but just a bit out of my budget at the moment...

MH hits it. Maybe the best way to minimize inquiries would be to mark each patina in the other thread as "SOLD" once it is gone. ( another penny or two..:2c:)

Ah, yes..The 48 hour rule. I don't know if the administrators can help you out or not but it may a least be worth a shot....

While I'm at it, here's one last family shot as well as one more "Thank You" for the work you have done. As you know, I'm not really a clone guy but you have now added your touch to the only three I own....:)
