06AngusSG Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) PLEASE READ ENTIRE POSTBid is @ $350 Pictures Below So I finally have completed loader No. 100. Its been a 4 year road to get to this point and its been extremely fun to make all of these and talk with all of you. I have made these in several species of Maple, Walnut, Cherry and Cocobolo. I wanted to make this one different than any other and I think I've accomplished that goal. This one is made of Leopardwood inlaid with Ebony in the compensator. The bullet markers on top are the original Aut-Ord-Co shape hand inlaid with Birdseye Maple. The Side inlays are the later Thompson Bullet hand shaped and inlaid in Birdseye Maple and further inlaid with Ebony lettering of "NO 100" Showing that you have a one of a kind loader. Also burned into the bottom is my logo the year and No 100. AUCTION DETAILS So right off I will say that 15% of proceeds from this auction will go straight to the boards as a donation. I could not have accomplished this without Mr. Albert and this great site!! The auction Will go as follows: Beginning as of posting the auction will be openOpening price is $250Bids can be public OR private. If you want to private bid send me a PM with a bid amount and I will post in publicly without a name attached. For public bids simply post your bid below in the thread. Auction will close on Tuesday December 10th @ 6:00PM PST. OR Should I allow more time? Like till New Year's Day?? Whoever has the high bid at that time will have won the Loader. YES.... I DISCUSSED THIS WITH DAVID AND HAVE HIS PERMISSION Happy Bidding!! I cant wait to see who ends up with this. You will not be disappointed!! Thank you guys again for all the support the past 4 years!!!! Edited December 8, 2019 by 06AngusSG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiz Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 Absolutely fabulous. How do you do it? Its amazing. I have one in the standard maple and not being a woodworker I marveled at the workmanship when I received it.. I will be surprised if this one goes for anything less than $500. Great work Jon.

dalbert Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 If you don't have any bids yet, maybe you should extend the auction for a few days longer. I was surprised how short the runway was... David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I'm probably going the extend indefinitely until I get a bite of some kind...I wasn't trying to rush anything, just kind of figured like eBay or armlist that a week was good/normal...?
