For those people not familiar with Jay's products, be sure to check out his site. He makes his bullet bars in two diameters, and with your choice of 4 different lengths and two different glazes (which do affect the tone). I found that having the correct length bar is very critical- you can hold and manipulate it much better if it fits your hand properly.
His bars are also lighter than stainless steel, and I had him make me one as light as possible. He also makes the shaped tone bars (like a Stevens bar), with or without a bull nose, and in your choice of 4 different lengths. And all of this for a very reasonable price.

Thanks for the kind words, Steve.
Just to clarify... I make my round, bullet bars in 4 diameters now, not just two. As a result of Forum members' input over the past year, I have revised my product offerings accordingly. I will be updating my web site info this week to reflect those changes. I'll also be adding my first "color" option as well... you'll want to stay tuned for that announcement and accompanying photos.

This message is for Jay. I purchased a short white slide, and liked it so I purchased a blue slide and never received it. I wrote to you and you never answered my email. So now I am attempting to reach you here. I payed you with paypal. The email address I used is the same as the one with my profile. Maybe I can reach through this way.

Hello Andre,
Thanks for writing! I am sorry I missed your new order. I searched my email folders and found your custom-sized order dated April 10 but was unable to locate your new order. Would you be kind enough to give me the date you placed the order, and what you ordered? It would help me track it on PayPal also.
I am gong to assume that since I got this notice from you through my email, that you should be able to easily contact me again. I will also contact you through your profile email address.
Regards, Jay
