    I totally agree...Since it's a metallic colour it's a standard one that many many people will want. Myself included.

    As discussed before, Tim would also have to offer a polishing service for said trans-metal PC's if he were to do this, i would pay for the service in addition to the PC...

    So? Many people (including myself) would gladly pay extra to get parts highly polished + powder coated Transparent Gold.

    I don't know about others... but its getting boring really fast with color paint/powder coating... People want more realistic finishes like transparent gold offers (oh and maybe certain parts machined from copper!).

    Two Services Badly needed:
    Polishing
    PC Transparent Gold

    Boring? Hardly. I can create dozens of sabers that are all unique using nothing but flat black and bare polished aluminum. The only limits here are your imagination and skill.

    However, Im sure many would benefit from the Trans Gold and it would be good if Tim offered it.

    The flip side is that it's a lot of work to get a nice gold to come out right, and the cost may be more than you're really willing to pay

    If you're new, please take the time we all consider just as precious as you and READ!

    But what would you do Fender? What happens after Tim starts selling RGB LEDs too?

    Doubt it, unless i feel he tries to shaft me. He's prices are decent (not great but decent), so i doubt it would be the 'odd' weird price. Hell, the guy called my home after i noticed something was missing from one of my orders. He called the same day i left an e-mail, and rectified the situation ASAP by sending the part express (it arrived 2 days later). Thats GREAT service (and its that kind of things that make come back and back and back).

    Anyways, it's cheaper (and less hassle) than sending parts to a place to get them PC while having no idea wtf they are powder coating, and the off chance they **** up (which has happen to me on gun parts, both PC and anodizing).

    I live in Montreal, they don't know about machinist shops (to get metal cut, drill etc), PC shops, Anodizing shop... hell i have to get EVERYTHING done outside of the country most of the time (hello custom fee's...).

    The more i can get done in one place, the better! Even if it cost a little bit more

    Woah man. Halifax is way smaller then Montreal and I can get a lot of things done here but it seems when you find tings online they're usually not in Canada.

    Are you sure it's not a french/english issue? If something isn't stocked here I can usually find a business that will order it. I haven't tried looking for anyone local to PC because the TCSS prices look good to me compared to any local services and I know that it's coming from one place so less shipping or running around.
