It's definitely been a weird weather year so far, 85 one day, 45 the next then 70 the next.
Hope it eases up on you soon my brother.

Supposed to be 6 here Monday morning. Had to reschedule 2 crews cause Romex isn't friendly at that temperature.....little lone electricians.
We are at 4º / -17º wind chill right now and thats supposed to top out tonight @ -2º / -23º wind chill!!! 20º sounds real good right now...
My body would go into shock and probably die there....LOL. Screw that. It's in the 50s here now and we have a fire going...LoL. Thank god for gas logs and gas heat!
, I can't think straight now.Holy crap. Have you folks seen the new postal rates? Crazy huge price hike. And no more getting the discount for using the online service. A small flat rate box is now $6.80 and the small flat envelope is $6.45. Jeez. I haven't checked myself, but heard you can still get the discount shipping through Paypal, but it's still $6.10 for a small box and $5.75 for the flat rate envelope. I will check on first class so people can have that option, but then that means I have to charge for padded envelopes, stock them up and still pay for labels too. Man, big freakn jump.
yup! but a discount is definitely still available through pp 
since that shipping service is not easy to find unless you receive monies for goods and/or services you can easily find it at
www.paypal.com/shipnow

Small flat rate used to be $5.95 I believe so less than a dollar rate increase. Still worth it over a padded envelope or first class IMHO
small flate rate if you printed your own label was $5.25
that discount is now gone on usps.com so that's a big jump!

you have no idea what some of us hosts were able to fit into a padded envelope!
at least twice the stuff you can get into a small flat rate box! 
I have a huge address book at usps.com so i liked using it. The issue is they are no longer giving the commercial rate to folks who print at their site, it's the same as you pay at the counter. So a small flat rate box went from 5.25 to 6.80. So that's a pretty sizeable jump. Only saving grace is you can use PayPal's crappy system and get the commercial rate of 6.10. I just don't like the label print nor their bulk feature. Thank god no more coop hosting as I used to upload a google sheets database to usps for that.Small flat rate used to be $5.95 I believe so less than a dollar rate increase.

Anyway, since I've gotta use PayPal I'm offering anyone the opportunity for first class. Just understand both shipping will be a little higher for misc materials and paypal fees. I take the hit on fees with the tip price but just think on shipping this is fair. Might take me a few tries to ger this all ironed out.
Anyway, about to post the tip pics from pre surgery batch in a minute. I'll pm and ask shipping prefs and give a payment link for either option.
Sorry it's taken so long. Feeling a bit better today now that the moisture has moved on....but guess what. .right back next weekend. ...jeez. Gimme a freakn break on the weather please. Thank god I don't live where it's really cold. LoL.
You got it. Hell I've packed two small flat rates into one padded to save but keep it protected better...lol.you have no idea what some of us hosts were able to fit into a padded envelope!
dj, remind everybody though there is NO included insurance with first class ...
Forgot to put on the o-ring before pics and sorry, I just didn't feel like setting up the tent and all that stuff. Crappy outside, so yeah, sucky pics. But if anyone every gets a tip and doesn't like it for some reason or ever has a problem with one of my tips, please let me know and we will get it straightened out. Just wanted to put that out there as I would hope everyone should know to contact me if they ever had an issue. Most all of my customers are my friends and I want everyone to always be happy with their purchase over anything else.
OK, first up is Miss Penguiness' bone tip and white teak. There are more pics, you know what to do. FYI, I am sorry that bone is not taking pics well. But it is a beautiful tip and is fully CA coated and polished. For some damn reason it's picture shy (or I suck at taking pics....nah). LoL.
RattlerX's desert ironwood
Copterstyle's stabilized claro walnut
Gigdujour's Rosewood burl
And one really crappy attempt at a group pic.
