[Woodcarver] Finish for cottonwood bark carving

[Larry & Naomi Winders]

Hi Mr. Yudis,

I was planning on ordering one jar each of the Meltonian boot and cream
polish,813160,813161,813162,813163. Also as I recall a Ms. Woodward
suggested that you sold a brush that could also be used for brushing a bark
carving. If you have time could you give me just a little info. on the
brush and the cost. I talked with a woodcraft home the other day. Spoke
with a Sam as I recall, he furnished a number of 333243 but when I did the
search it showed no results. Woodcraft does not accept my credit card Amex.
So do you think they would ship and send me a bill or me send a check and
wait for it to clear before my order is shipped. I know I want the polish
and I'm thinking I would buy two brushes depending on what you think of the
brushes and mail one to my brother he carves as . Thanks for your time. I
know this is wordy, but shucks I'm retired so what else do I have to do.
Thanks for your time I really appreciate it.
