Fujan Hammer

[Greg Newell]

Steve,
         I'm glad to see that you monitor this list. When you let me borrow 
the lever to take over to the Baldwin booth that day I was rather pleased 
with what I was feeling. The lever gave me very positive feedback about 
what was happening at the pin. I've been thinking about the lever ever 
since and would like the chance to try it out a bit more before taking the 
plunge. While I don't imagine that's possible I'd settle for hearing some 
testimonials. Are there any of your customers who might feel like chiming 
in here?

best,
Greg Newell

P.S. since the tubes are hollow I wonder if you could store mutes in there. 
Ever try it?
