    Hi ,

    I neglected your post while checking on the insane stock markert here in China, faxxing forms to the IRS, updating Vusas and applying for visa for elswhere.. My profuse apologies. I was dong that Glow in dark thingee at ISSFA. since the powers that be only wanted to sell classes and left me to my own wits. Steve Bace, the best solid surface fabrication trainer I have ever met, had me whip up a batch in the lab. Those Shop guys went wild. They saved the routing dust from to paint on minature scale racecar headlights. MAde me laugh.Anyway, there is a website….www.lumistone.com

    Hope this helps,

    Lemny.

    PS its avaliable in powder blue, or this halloween green..the green is the strongestglow , but like the powder blue.

    To everyone, I just wanted to take a minute and invite all the members who haven’t ever made themselves known to your fellow fabricators at this site to mabe take a minute take and do so. There have been some interesting things going on here for some time now, it’s easy to get involved. I’m sure many of you have lots to offer. At the very least it’s interesting to learn where everybody is from and whats going on in their area. Cheers David G.

    Hey Everyone

    Dave Apollonio

    Brand new to the fabricating game, I have been working with Precision Counter Tops in Chantilly, Virginia for about 10 months. I run the CNC at our shop, it is a Multicam 5000. I just recently found your website and have already reaped the rewards of my find, specifically the dxf sinks files. Thanks for such a great resource.

    Hey to everyone,

    Been on the site for about a month and now have time to formally introduce myself. I was the one looking for the pigment. My name is Aurora and my husbands name is Fermin. We own Fermin’s Countertops in New Mexico. We both worked @ Avonite for several years then Fermin went on to work for different Countertop Shops, until we finally decided to take the plunge and go out on our own. So far it’s been great. I was a sales service rep for the West coast and International Dist. for Avonite. So alot of your names are familiar to me. Basically I inputed all the orders for the Distributers like, Abet, Calply, National Wood, Harters and so on. And occaionally I’d get a call from fabricators who hadn’t received material or cracked sheets. The job was great I learned alot about the Biz, but I love being on this end of it. I know, I know I talk my husbands head off too!! Oh, and I found some pigment…Thanks Guys.

    Hi. I’m Owen. Our shop is in Ohio. I built homes for years in California, moved into kitchens and solid surface in the 90’s and now only do the high end surfaces: stone, quartz, and solid surface. Business is good and we’re having a lot of fun. I like this site. Wherever there is open communication and a free flow of ideas good things happen. I’m finding helpful info here already, and hope to offer the same. Thanks for making and keeping this a great site.

    Hey everyone my name is Ryan my family and I started Ameritops a year or so back and i have been scouring the web for information to get us up to speed in this industry. First I would like to thank every one who regularly post comments on this forum (you know who you are), your knowledge and expertise is greatly appreciated. Me and my family own and operate a small operation just out side St. Louis Mo and feel that the industry is very strong and the market place in the St. Louis area is expanding. Our belief in quality and affordability may not be the most original business plane ever but we fell it gets harder and harder to find these simple qualities in highly competitive industries. From every one her at Ameritops hello and thank you.
