lol.....Yes....MissEmma....singlehandedly keeping me in business............

On a sad note, I will be discontinuing the wooden driptip line......since I started making these things several companies have began offering the same thing. I don't have the means to keep up with production on a similar scale and can't afford to keep producing these at cost nor am I competetive enough to even want to try. I will try and start a new product line with these new metal tips though. The blue ones already posted are just the tip of the iceberg. In the same material , I will also be offering Gold'n'black, Damascus, and Mokume-gane patterned tips. All of them will be made of 100% hypoallergenic metal. I will also be standardizing the shape. Thank you everyone for your encouragement.

I'm glad I got mine then...love them, especially the bocote...the shape is perfect. I do want one of your new blue ones....probably others when I see the colors. :)

Yea...the problem is the time involved to make the wooden tips....I started this venture to fill a void in the area of driptips....since then others have come along with better facility to take over what I started. Time to move along. This new material is much easier to work with and finish than the wood so I can still keep the cost down but will have to charge bit more than I was due to base cost of the material itself. But if you want to have a nice Damascus or Mokume-gane or Titanium tip. And not just fake stuff but actual real metal , then I will be here turning out something special for you.

Thanks for the PM interceptor, I sure appreciate it and all, I will be replying to your PM.
Thanks again and congratulations on your outstanding work, very impressive!!!

Thanks! My favorite part is having something people enjoy. I love driptips myself and love having unique things that no one else can have or get. Keep watching to see what else I can come up with.

Ok...so did some shopping around today, found something good....and found something bad. The bad is that I am not happy with the new material....at least not the blue one. It looks nice and spiffy but I dropped the cap and tip and chipped the corner. Badly. So thats that so far....but on the good side. I found some neat little things to protect our nicer PV's from simple damage from knockovers and little slips. Here's a couple pics of a couple example I picked up. I hope you all like them.
