Noel, I got your e-mail about the artwork and I was just wonderin’ which part the buttons cover exactly. Is there anyway you can send the pic over my way wth the layout on it? If so send it to Agnstmi@aol.com since the other one is no longer working.

Christ0pher · October 7, 2005, 8:51pm

Hey Noel Thank You for replying so quickly. That layout will be fine with me. I was worried that Gaaras head was gonna be covered.

Two quick questions:

Does Sanwa make white buttons?
When should I send payment out. And how much was it again for a small model with wood sides?

Thanks

Hi again Noel, just wondering on the status of the order.

To everyone else, if you haven’t ordered yet, you should! Look at the amount of positive and NOTHING but positive feedback finkle is getting. That should attest to his stickmaking/customer service on it’s own.

finkle · October 12, 2005, 9:55pm

shipping out this week, infact I’m packing it up nicely tonight/tomorrow so it will be going out this week along with a few others (valgar, shrimpy)

sorry for the delay!
but everything is sorted out now

First of all, Finkle, you do amazing work. I’m extremely impressed. Now I really need to get me a stick, and you seem to be great at making these sticks, and everyone around here seems to be be quite happy with what you made them, so how much better are your sticks over say, the Anniversary Edition stick? I’d really like to purchase one from you, but I dont exactly know anything about these…So, what exactly is the difference? Sorry for all the questions, lol.

finkle · October 13, 2005, 2:19am

thanks for the kind words!
I think the biggest factor in buying a custom stick is that it’s made by hand by one individual and a great deal of time is put into each stick that is made. One could look at the parts included which are top notch or like what was said each stick is made by hand and i have to say although each stick that I make the majority of the time look alike (shape) they are all unique and one of a kind.

material wise sticks I make are hand formed from either aluminum or steel sheet and can have either machined aluminum sides or stained/painted wooden sides. thats something you dont see everyday.

I personally dont like to promote my own stuff I think the feedback that has been said on the 14 or so pages really paints a nice picture. I really appreciate all the great things people have said over the months.

if someone who has bought a stick from me would like to comment on the difference between my stick and the AE stick thats cool! I dont even own my own stick… I only get to test the ones I make LOL!

take care

You can’t compare the AE stick to Finkle’s stick. If you want an awesome stick then get it from Finkle. You won’t be disappointed and he will help you out with any of the details you want on your stick. I may get another one from him in the near future, just gotta wait to see him on AIM to discuss some things.

Hey Noel… you come out with a new case design yet? Remember I’m suppose to buy the first one you make.
