crimping head
I got my flanging aka crimping machine.
Hand operated, for small to medium number of bottles. Made in Italy, all shiny and fresh. I can’t wait…but need to. The new crimping bottles won’t get in before early March.
And a hint for Stephan: The pump will be in silver.

Photo: the handle… you see: It is human operated.

Hi Andy, what a pretty, shiny new flanging machine! Thanks for the explanation too. For some reason when I look at it, I think coffee….must be the Italian workmanship! Hope everyone has a great day!

Oh dear, my anticipation is rising. Did you say early March? That’s another month or so. Tonight I’ll dream of all the exciting things happening at your place. Take care.

Silver hardware for the New Look, hmmm? Were you influenced by the silvery gleam of all the powder snow you hike in? I dedicate Lionel Richie`s “Stuck On You“ to many successful flange-ing hours! I agree w/ the coffee thought - as in espressso! :-)

Good evening Jen,
yes coffee machine is a nice association, … espresso as Linda said, and I feel I can use every drop of liquid with caffeine in it in the coming weeks.
Oh, Stephan, easy, easy… I got so used to the idea of the various changes; and indeed, we are already thinking September/October and the next things to come beyond X-mas 2010. It is a fast world these days. Actually, March translates into two months. It is end March… I am sorry. But the two months pass by faster than you can think.
Good evening hotlanta linda, Silver might sound like a downgrade after gold that I have now. I would say: Silver as understatement, cool message: Hey, I am not Mr. goldfinger, but the guy with the silver pumps…

Careful there - punning on silver pumps, you have me at Studio 54 in the 70`s, w/ the Village People performing “YMCA“!! Some of the scents listed in K.T.Maclay`s book I mentioned will take you back to that time & space FAST!! :-)

Maybe this is the silver lining on the horizon that your creations are seeing this year.

Little boys - little toys, big boys… Looks good, the machine. I hope you’ll have enough patience and wait till March and will not try this machine on other things while waiting :o)

Good morning to you, AromaX
These days, I have many toys. One being the internet, one being the crimping machine and I think my toys get expensive these days…
But it is sure fun playing!
