INTERNATIONAL BUYERS

Shipping costs for International Sales has increased over double for this year of 2013. I do not set the shipping costs associated with out of country sales nor do I have the power to bring them down to the old rates that were in the past years.

I feel the pain for you but it is what it is.

PLEASE CHECK THE SHIPPING COSTS TO YOUR COUNTRY PRIOR TO PLACING A BID OR BUYING IT NOW.

CHECK MY STORE, COULTERPRECISION, FOR MORE SELECTIONS THAT ARE NOT LISTED IN THE REGULAR EBAY SEARCH. SIMPLY CLICK ON MY STORE ICON SHOWN ABOVE .

SCALE SHOW IN THE IMAGE ON THIS LISTING IS NOT PART OF THIS SALE.

TOTAL WEIGHT OF THIS HANDLE WITH ONE BIT IS ONLY 1/2 OF AN OUNCE. TOOL HANDLES DOES COME WITH THE TWO BITS AS SHOW IN THE IMAGE. THIS HANDLE IS THE SMALLEST ONE I NOW MAKE AND LIST ONLY ON EBAY.

DUE TO POPULAR REQUESTS, FROM PREVIOUS BUYERS OF MY TOOLS, I AM LISTING THIS NEW CoulterPrecision™ PRINTMAKING SCRIMSHAW POWDER HORM CUSHIONED TOOL THAT HAS REMOVEABLE - REPLACEABLE CARBIDE TIPPED TOOL BITS. ALSO INCLUDED WITH THIS NEW TOOL IS ONE (1) EXTRA .050 ALLEN WRENCH AND ONE (1) EXTRA 4-40 STAINLESS STEEL SET SCREW WHICH IS USED TO SECURE THE TOOL BIT INTO THE HANDLE.

HANDLE CONSTRUCTION IS MADE OUT OF 303 STAINLESS STEEL. CUSHIONS ON HANDLE ARE MADE OUT OF SILICONE RUBBER.

FINAL GRIND ON POINTS IS COMPLETED WITH AN 800 GRIT DIAMOND WHEEL. VERY LITTLE PRESSURE, IF ANY AT ALL, SHOULD BE EXCERTED DURING THE USE OF THIS TOOL DUE TO THE SHARPNESS OF POINT. FINAL GRIND ON POINT IS ACCOMPLISHED WITH A FINE DIAMOND GRIT WHEEL. ALL TOOLS SOLD ARE CHECKED FOR SHARPNESS ON A JONES & LAMSON COMPARATOR USING A 20 POWER LENSE. THIS COMPARATOR COSTS AROUND $20,000 TO REPLACE AND WHEN I SAY THE POINTS ON THE TOOLS I FABRICATE ARE SHARP, THEY ARE REALLY EXTREMELY SHARP.

ALL OF THE TOOLS I SELL ON E-BAY ARE OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY AND ARE INSPECTED DURING VARIOUS STEPS OF FABRICATION. TAKE THE TIME TO CHECK MY FEEDBACKS ON THE PAST TOOLS I HAVE SOLD. THE FEEDBACK SAYS IT ALL. IN ADDITION, YOU WILL ALSO NOTICE THAT I HAVE REPEAT CUSTOMERS PURCHASING VARIOUS TOOLS I CARRY ON EBAY FOR SCRIMSHAWING.

I WILL CONSIDER NO EMAIL OR NO PAYMENT WITHIN 10 DAYS OF AUCTIONS END A NO SALE AND WILL START THE BALL ROLLING ON REQUESTING A REFUND OF THE FINAL VALUE FEE FROM EBAY. E-BAY HAS RULES FOR USING THEIR SITE AND FOR NON-PAYING BIDDERS; THEY RUN THE RISK OF BEING BANNED PLACING BIDS ON E-BAY.
