covell vhs tapes 1/2 price

Ax has recomended his basic steel working video a few times and the tapes are half price so I ordered one up. Ron took the order himself, sounds like a nice guy.

He is a very nice guy. Are the DVDs also on sale? I'd like to get his new chopping and sectioning one. His videos are worth more than what he normally charges, 1/2 price is a great deal!

I have this DVD and it is well worth the price. Highly detailed and covers the whole process, Ron is indeed a master!

Yesterday I ordered the basic working with steel, and chopping and sectioning, both on vhs. $48 for both, including shipping.

I rent many videos from http://smartflix.com/, they carry most of Ron's videos as well as many other "how-to" vids. Kinda works like Netflix, pay one price and get the tape/DVD in a couple of days along with the return mailer...one price, easy turnaround.

I am basically a tightwad, but I don't mind paying full price for RC's tapes because I want to encourage that type of sharing and teaching. I know he doesn't get rich off them like the movie studios and and stars do, for him it's a labor of love and sharing of skills and knowlege, and I applaud that.
I have learned a great deal from him already from his videos and columns in the magazines.
If you can't afford to buy them, do at least rent them, the information in them is priceless.

Smile Re Covell tapes

I would recomend any of Rons tapes or DVDs. I went to one of his two day seminars while he was here in New Zealand and he was a top bloke with a real passion for his trade and as ax racer has said anyone who is pepaired share there knowledge with us needs to be supported! Buy one for Xmas.
Merry Xmas to all From Kiwi

His columns in the magazines are the first thing I turn to. You can read more of his work at metalshapers dot com.

Not yet, been off from work this week so no deliveries. The DVD is the same price on C's site so I let him have the extra profit.
