New Sierra Vista pen kit at AS

[jthompson1995]

I just saw that AS has a new pen kit, the Sierra Vista.

http://www.arizonasilhouette.com/New_Products.htm

It is a wider bodied Sierra, but uses the same mechanism with the same drill size and tube, just new bushings to accomodate the width. I thought the current size of the Sierra was good so we'll have to see if this will appeal to people who like a bigger pen.

There is also a note that there will be more new kits coming the week of Oct. 31. Things could get quite interesting with the new PSI kit and now new Berea kits.

The Sierra Vista is .049 larger in diameter than the original sierra. Should be a help to those of us who make snake skin sierras.

I wish I'd seen this a week ago ....I ruined a sierra snakeskin blank trying to turn it down to fit the bushings on the regular sierra kit [!]

Same here.

They should have made the clip bend a little further from the cap, lets you put more shape on the top end.

Lance and Mike, I hope you found some PR to make "oops" rings. The last skin I "goofed" on was the first one to sell at the next show - brown "oops" rings at all four ends set off the "toad skin" beautifully. Commanded a premium (should have, took time to recover!)


Make believe you PLANNED it that way![][][][][]

This news just hit the news stand...we didn't know about it until just a day or two ago. Bill told us on the Tues nite chat about the sierra vista. Also, Bill will be Rich K's guest on the chat next Tues and from what Bill mentioned last Tues, he will have other kit announcements to talk about at that time. Look for some new stuff from Berea and the various Berea suppiers next week maybe. Exciting...no sleep for us until we know[][]

Lance and Mike - remember you are the only ones that know you goofed. Well we know now .... but we aren't your customers[]
