I have made both hard point and Baron style of cable handles for 14 years. I came to me this week that if people are willing to pay $25.00 plus $4.25 postage for a kit, my time is worth much more that I have been charging for my handles.
The work that I do all myself puts almost 2 hours in each handle plus I apply 10 coats of clear acrylic to each handle before it is done. Then there is the safety thong complete and installed ready to go. There is to much time and energy expended to continue to sell these handles for the price I do.

Currently the hard point slider sells for $30.00
The Baron type slider sellf for $35.00 This includs priority mail.

Effective Jan 1st 2005 the price will be as follows:

Hard point slider $40.00
Baron style cable slider $50.00 These prices do include priority mail postage.

Large or small all the same pricing.

I will honor the current pricing until December 31st. If you think that you want a handle or 2 now is the time to order. I will honor the price for orders paid for up to that date.

Considering that the current world champion Bill Werwage used one of my handles to win the world champs this is enoigh to justify the new pricing.

I do realise that I may get a lot of orders so I will be possibly a little slow in filling the later orders. The check will not be deposited until I ship the handles.

Thanks:

Dick,

Do you sell just the hardware part? I prefer my own handle shape.

Thanks
