>I ordered Don Pencil's Stinger about 2 weeks ago from his website. He has not answered my emails to find out how long it takes to deliver his products.

Has anyone else had this problem?

>Ron, I have never had Don answer my emails either. But you should get notified when you package ships.

>I made one purchase from him about one year ago with no problem. Since then I've emailed him several times with inquiries regarding products, none were ever answered.

>I find it amusing that he has 4 email addresses on his front page. He has 4 ways for him not to get in touch with you.

I have ordered some things throught a third party and was told the he is traveling back and forth between California and Washington because of this.

I've gotten what I ordered but it took a while.

>Ron,

Don does a lot of traveling. I think that this is more of a hobby business.

If you are interested in his hollowing system, get it from Lee Valley - they sell it cheaper than Don does on his website.

The Products are fantastic quality.

>I got a Stinger for Christmas in 2003, but it took about 3 months to get all of the parts. Lots of phone calls, emails, etc., before I finally got it all. I like the tool, but getting it was a pain.

>I've kind of been off the air and out of the shop for a while. The rotator cuff problem has kept me away from the lathe - glass is easier on the body right now. Even that's been minimal since December. I'm hoping for a gradual return to the world soon. It's good to see everyone here again - I need to check in more often.
