..hey Rick... you have found just the right man to ask an help... :)
you're lucky !

Sure will - I'm in production now!

Just a quick update:

I attended a Junior Olympics Qualifier Fencing tournament in Portland over the weekend, hooked up with a well-known vendor, and he ordered 100 of the Melting pommels on the spot. After I sold him the 30 or so that I had in stock, I ran completely out of parts and plastic, so I've been frantically working on getting shim washers, brass inserts, and plastic since then.

I haven't shipped any yet, but will within 10 days or so, and will send Burr one as a memento and Thanks for his invaluable help.

That's cool Rick!

"""""""""I haven't shipped any yet, but will within 10 days or so, and will send Burr one """"""""""""

Be sure not to worry about it while your swamped.. Get all the orders filled first! It's not necessary, but THANKS!

Good luck.

Cool!
Burr you'll have to go on Ebay and find yourself a cheap foil for the pommel :)

En garde!

Yes! May have to make one in MoI first.

May stab myself in the foot though.... Perry, perry, demi plié?

And here's the image and the link (for any epee fencers out there). I FINALLY solved a 3D printing issue just this afternoon, and my production quality is now of commercial quality (about $150 of plastic later).

Looks great Rick, thanks for sharing the photo!

Realized I never came back and thanked Rick. He sent me one of the finished pieces... They are very well made...

Thanks for the piece rick. It's on my desk... :)

Thank You for your assistance, Burr. I've since bought a new Ultimaker 2, and the parts are coming out quite a bit better quality and at higher resolution.

Alright Rick,
Although I wont take up fencing, my brother will make a fish poker to fit it. Maybe I'll get a picture of the first Mahi or Ahi that gets a coup de grâce with it and post it here!

Later.
