Master Eirik Update (w/ upcoming events)

One - I'm headed up to Baron Wars this weekend. Look forward to seeing a bunch of you there. 
Two - I've got the 160 psi siloflex back in, but the cost has more than doubled. Empty pipe (42") has to go $10 each. I about broke my jaw on the floor when I got the invoice. Which takes the price of pre-made rattan cored siloflex sword blanks to $35. I won't get any made by this weekend but I'll let folks know when I get them done.
Three - I'm getting some more big rattan in. But it went up too. I'll post when I have the final numbers. There also isn't much of it, the importer got shorted on his shipment, I'm getting everything he's got, and everything off his summer container in a month, but I'm not going to have the 80+ sticks for Pennsic this year that I had last year.
And Four - Vitus, in case you missed it, I got the 1.5 inch shaved rattan. I might have it in time for Baron Wars Saturday, but Monday at the latest.

The last time I was there for a Thursday to Sunday event was in the 80's.
