Now we can say Happy Thanksgiving, since it's actually Thanksgiving.....LoL. Well, at least it is for those of us on the right side of the US.
35 minutes till T-Day on the left side, Jasen....
Have a nice painless day tomorrow, ole buddy...!

Better than laying around hurting, unless you're laying around CA-ing stuff.....
You have any more drip tips made, the light colored ones?
When I get through making up this latest batch of pinch mod drip tips, I am going to make a batch of pre-made tips for sale. But I can always make you exactly what you want too. Wait, I do have a bone tip made up. I made it up a while back just to experiment, it turned out awesome. It's a standard size tip which are around 11mm OD x 15mm tall. I think that is the only tip I have other the one's I made for other people already. I also have two Peko mods almost finished too. Made them up a little while back in between stuff. One is my first real wood veneer Peko, the other is a silver and black swirl (it still needs CA). Not sure I am going to have time to finish them up before surgery as I am getting all my current orders out first. Hoping that all will be finished by the weekend. Getting close.
I like the ones I bought from you in the past, especially a mixture of the lighter colored. If you make more, I'll take four-five of them.
As soon as I am able to start back sitting at the lathe after surgery, my plan is to make up a bunch of tips for sell instead of just waiting on custom orders. So I will make up some extras that are smaller than the my standard, as if I remember correct, you liked the 10mm tall versions...right? And I have lots of light woods. Peter has sent me a lot of extra scrap woods and I have been buying up a lot of small wood blocks so I have more on hand for selection. Right now I have a nice stash of wood. In addition to making up tips, I have decided to change up a few other things about my business post surgery. Going to go ahead and make up some Peko mods and GDNA mods and put them up for instant purchases too instead of waiting around for customs.
One cool new thing I have to offer is a new style Peko and Gdeal and myself modified from the original Peko Plus. It has a cutaway space all around the body and a recess in the top of the button (this model will only be available as a completed mod). What I originally wanted this for was for bonding leather into that recess area in the button and around the sides. But soon thought of many other uses. Right now, I have one in which I took real wood veneer, cut and CA bonded it into the peko. So I have the first real wood peko prototype which I have been working with on and off for a while. Almost got it ready for pictures. My plan is to make a pattern for my CNC rig so I can precisely cut out various insert materials to bond into the peko. So far I am thinking copper, brass, wood, leather and there are tons of other real veneer materials, such as abalone veneer. Will also be able to use my carbon fiber tube to wrap it and bond into the cutout. So going to spend a lot of time re-developing the Peko into something a lot different than the original. All will come with my new auto adjust 510 and the new way I build internals with all copper wire (except I use stranded now). So anyway, I have plenty of stuff to keep me busy, mind and hands anyway, after surgery. Very excited about some of the new stuff I am going to be able to offer.
Been working with Gdeal on developing a brand new GDNA too. Not going to let the cat out of the bag just yet, but lets just say it's the GDNA everyone has always asked for in the past. Stayed tuned for more info on that very soon. Going to be a very limited run to begin with, but hopefully if the prototype run is successful, this will be a regular offering that will be done in runs. This will be a completed unit, there will not be any kits.

Interesting Jasen..anyway, the tips I received from you are approximately .5 inch long.
When you're back in business, I'll take a half dozen drip tips.
The wood veneer on the GDNA sounds like something doable, but I'm sure time consuming..!
You could always email me to let the cat out of the bag, if you intend to build some 200 watt GDNA's
I'd like to place the first order......

The wood veneer is on the Peko, not the GDNA. I have no plans on doing a wood veneer GDNA, that would be a pita.
Also, I will say I have no plans on using a DNA200. The size of the board coupled with the need for a large Li-Po battery make it undesirable for a small squonker.

D_J, I will take that bone tip if you still have it, to be shipped with my white teak.
