Andy....

Check PayPal, please. I've just ordered two sets of .025"s (one in red and one in black). Is there any chance of the coating just being on the inside of the pick, or is that too complicated?

Anyway - can you confirm that you've received the money?

Thanks,

Thanks for the bump Crowbear; Sorry I missed your phone call, still at work that time of day. Your pick order will be mailed Monday. You European steelers might be interested to know; Crowbear is overseas dealer for the coated fingerpicks. Makes it a little easier for you to try them. Andy H.

Hi Sam: That will be great. I'm starting a new step to the process, priming before dipping in hopes it will make them last longer. You, Crowbear & charlie Thompson will be the first to get these picks. Always trying to improve them. Thanks Andy H.

Hey Charlie & Sam: Thanks for the thoughts & good wishes. Sam; didn't get the check today, probably Monday. Finished the process on the picks this morning. They'll go in the mail Mon. afternoon. Gotta get the stiches out Mon.morning. Andy H.
P/S Charlie Moore; Got my medicare card all ready.

Anouncing; an additional step to the coating process. I'm now priming the finger strap with metal primer before doublecoating each pick. Should keep the coating from peeling MUCH longer. No change in price for this; just doubles the coating time. Oh well, got to keep quality up. For Samuel White, I still didn't get your check Sam. Guess the holiday mail has slowed it down. If I had your address I'd go ahead & ship yours. Thanks ALL & Happy Holidays

Hey Charlie; Glad they made it before Christmas. I think they'll last a lot longer.
Want to wish everyone on the Forum Merry Christmas & Happy & Prosperous New Year.

Hi Andy, Please check your Paypal account for my message and payment. Thanks jc

Sam White · Post by **Sam White** » 22 Dec 2008 3:58 pm

Hi Andy thank you I got my picks and I like them. They stay on your fingers with out sticking your finger in your mouth to get them to stay on. Great Idea.I use the red ones on my finger next to my thumb and the black one on my middle finger. I thought of this when I went to put them on.They stay on great. Thanks again and you have a great Holiday Season.

CAN THESE PICKS BE COATED TO WHERE THE OUTER PART THAT RUBS BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND IS NOT COATED ON THE OUTER PART JUST LEAVING METAL FOR SOME THAT THOSE FINGERS SEEM TO SCRUB TOGATHER LIKE MINE

Andy Hinton · Post by **Andy Hinton** » 23 Dec 2008 8:43 pm

Hi Bill: Not if I keep the price where it is now; & some think thats too much. The only thing I've found to keep the coating on is to spray metal primer on the wraps then dip them in the coating. Tried hand painting just the inside but it didn't work. Sorry; you might get a set & carfully trim part of it off. The whole thing has been a learning process. Feedback has helped & I've revised the thing 4 times. I think what I do now is about it. Thanks for your interest. Andy H.
