Hi folks,
I would like to know, which of you fellow members have turned the highest number of my #45xx Banksia Hairy pod Resifills, before and or after they started to be stabilized.
I'm looking for a person with balls that will be prepared to do a test for me, as I offered this challenge to someone else that made various complaints about these blanks but, was not prepared to even have a decency to reply to my offer, and yes, that did p!$$ed me off but, life goes on, right...???
The reason I require someone with a fair number of these blanks turned preferentially successfully is that, I have 3 of these blanks to be worked on and be made into any kit you like with 2 barrels.
The blanks are made with clear resin as always however, each blank is made with a different resin type, including one that costs about $70 per litre...
yes, that's right.
The deal/offer I made to this other member, had the same purpose but a different intention so, the person that is up to this challenge, appart from getting the 3 blanks sent to his/her door free of charge, will also receive a AU$50.00 gift voucher, to be used on my web-store.
So, what does this challenge entail...??
The person will receive 3 identical blanks, each blank will be identified with a letter, "A", "B" and "C", each letter correspond to the resin type/name it was used to make it, which is not to be revealed until the end.
An email or PM will be sent to one of our reputable members and on that email/PM the correct resin names for each test blank letter, will be revealed so, only that person and myself know which is which. When the 3 blanks have been tested, transformed into pens or into a bunch of bits and pieces, in a time period that I would like to be kept around 4 weeks from reception of the blanks, I will request that selected person to reveal the resin names/types for each blank letter, this is to avoid the possibility that someone would think that I change the resin names to my own benefit, no Sir, there will nothing of that nature, everything will be clear to everyone so see.
One would ask, why am I doing this...??? because, a certain person did not have any hesitation to complaint and claim that the blanks are useless and that self destroy, too brittle, basically unworkable. I responded that, the original blanks, that this person purchased in quantity, when I was still selling/giving them practically away, have since been stabilized and prepared is different ways and therefore, were given much less troubles and, a little easier to work with HOWEVER, I consider these, one of my most fragile blanks to handle and that, certain specific suggestions to its better handling, have been made very clear by me, long ago but, the argument was based to his claim that, these blanks could not be improved while using the original Polyester resin that they all were made with, all but 2 of the 3 to be tested.
I have made various attempts to make this person understand that, since the pod material has been stabilised and some other alterations were put into practice, the blanks had indeed improved significantly but, that did not stop this person to go to other social media outlets (Facebook, etc,) and make all sorts of claims/complaints and I attempted to have this person to make these tests and be rewarded with 10 new blanks made with whatever resin he liked the most or, had less problems with.
I did ponder for some time, after this person simply ignored my offer, if i would bring the issue among the IAP family, sure, some will think this was a bad idea and other may think that this was a good idea not forgetting those, that won't give a toss, either way but let me make something very clear, I may be annoyed with this person and somehow, offended with his ignoring of my offer however, I do not wish that this will turn into a fight between myself and the person is question, I indeed request that, that person does not post in here and start something that he may not be able to stop, I only want to make sure that, anyone that has heard/read this person's comments about these blanks of mine that, they are workable even if only traditional tools are used.
Lets see what other people have to say and lets see what will happen to these 3 test blanks and it's pen turner selected...!
Are you the person I'm looking for...??? let us all know...!
Cheers
