Until I know I want to spend the money on a custom made one, can anyone sell (or loan or rent or whatever) to me one of Doug's old T7E shanks? Perhaps a trade for another old DE shank? I have several on hand that might be of interest to one of you guys.
I have the cup and rim I want, so I am trying to avoid purchasing a whole mouthpiece.*
So a T7E shank? How about a T5E?
Anyone?
Bueller?
Bueller?
Let me know what you have. Thanks!

* If you have a 132-4N rim (gold, silver, lexan), a T cup in good condition, and the above shank (T7E or T5E) and are open to a trade I have some old Marcinkiewicz and Deck mouthpieces I never use for anything that might interest you. A direct trade might work for us. Let me know...
