You stay out of this.

Heck no don’t stay out. It’s nice to finally have somebody on this thread who isn’t running up the price on me.

But if rhwestfall gets his way, you (or I) get no chance!

George and I talked. Seemed like OP was more comfortable going with him. Hell, I’d be willing to pay the difference if it came down to it because I agree with you.

I’ll pay the difference!

Thanks everyone, you are too kind. But since you insist, please each send me $20 and I will use it to "cover the difference". In return, you will each get a personally autographed pic of me diving a newly polished brass plate. PM me for PayPal address.

If this is not in the right place mods feel free to relocate.
So some of you tech people who've been around for a bit would probably remember me from my G.U.T.S. days.
Try for long story short, Steve Lewis (aka Doppler) was after me to make him a brass backplate.
In order to make it worth my while I did a run of I think 10 plates.
Nine of the 10 are in service with various people throughout the world.
The one that's left is a 17.5" model, its engraved with "G.U.T.S. # 000 Gary H" down the center spline.
Goes without saying these all were custom plates thus the level of workmanship is very high.
Thinking of selling and want thoughts on what its worth?
Goes without saying that someone is going to chime in and say why brass.
Answer 1 because it looks awesome.
Answer 2 because I like exotic metals.

garyh

If you ever do another run of them I would be interested.

Does this plate come with an extra set of brass ball's for ballast?
