OK Doug Yours is in the mail Tuesday afternoonCould be there by Thursday they say.

Arrived here on Friday. Great piece. It will have a great home among the other C&T pieces in my office. Tons of fun when folks ask me about them. Leads me into many turning conversations including some that result in sales.

OK, we have 9 sent so far, and 1 received.What about the other 5 who haven't posted shipping yet??

Sorry, but mine hasn't hit the PO yet. SWMBO kept me hopping the last couple of days to the point of exhaustion. Will go out on Monday without fail though.
Cool

I'm glad all the bubble wrap kept it safe!

I'll have to try those captive rings sometime. Bob you sure got me with that packaging system. Does the USPS use the knob to hang the goblet during shipment? Thank very much.

That is the tube the plans for my boat came in. I cut it short and I turned the wooden end cap myself. I added the knob because I hate those end caps that don't give you anything to grab and pull them out. I thought you'd get a kick out of it. My daughter rolled her eyes and called me a freak when she saw it.

I would have sworn I kept a mailing tube from something I bought, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Then I remembered there were a couple of lengths of 3" thin walled PVC pipe under the deck that were there when we moved here ~25 years ago. I dug one out, cut off a length, washed it and turned a couple of end caps from a scrap of 2x4.

I was headed to the hardware store to buy some when I rememberd the shipping tube in my closet.

Received a round package in the mail 10 minutes ago. It took me that long to get it unpacked. Bob, it is magnificent! Thank you! It is now front and center in my "Rouge's Gallery."

I don't understand why more people don't get involved with the C&T's just for the thrill of seeing the work of someone like Bob on your own shelf.
