clemmy Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 I don't use them, but happened to check Barlow's new items page today and wanted to let fellow tu members know that they now have lr skirt pads... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celticav Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 Cool, bout time they got around to it. Thanks for the heads up clemmy...I do not use Barlow's either and would've never known that, but I do need to get a few things from them anyway. I am just such a die hard lumaflex and silicone fan that I have fallen in a rut about what, when, and where I order skirting, but need to bring good old LR back into my inventory in at least black and brown. Seems the older I get the more I get into one rut or another...JIM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 Do you mean silicone or round rubber? I think that you are talking about the silicone, I was just going to say to jim that the round rubber, which I think you are talking about (Jim) is not to be found anywhere these days. The factory went out of business, and no one has any until later this summer. I had to order 10 of those riny little 3 oz. rolls of orange from do-it just to hold me over until June or July when the china men get their plant up and running and get some over here to LR. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr B Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 Wow thats crazy. I havnt placed an order for about 2 months. About 75% of my customers prefer the frog hair over the others. Let me know if you find a connection. Mr B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 They will have more, but it will be later this summer. I think that they said some time next month. I don't know if it is going to be the same as it was though, since it is going to be coming from china now. Most of the stuff that i see coming from China is... well, shall I say, less than desireable... chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topher Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 Speaking of skirts, does any one know where to find the umbrella type skirts that you see on the cheapy bulk spins? I need to get them for just that, the cheapy bulk spins. They would save assembly time.... Thanks, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clemmy Posted May 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 If you are talking about the old rubber skirts like arbogast used to use, I think netcraft has em, also check out Ol' Bens Rubber Skirts at: www.ipa.net/~waschka/RRL/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
