Just to let everyone know. I have killed off the old Babe and the old Animal .They are no more. The Love cup is nearly dead to as I'm working on a new tennis ball cup. My line now is the Animal Street Devil and the Gazzo.  The Crash invader is nearly ready also.  I'm also working on an improved Gazzo. That will not get finished till I set up in UK as I need Gazzo's input on that one. All things come to pass and those designs had a long run.  The new replacement for the love cup is a smaller version of the street Devil. It's yet to be named.  The New Gazzo will also follow this look.

Yes I'm close now. I tried to spin some more sets on the nylon chucks and ruined the chuck, I have just made a steel chuck so all is good now with that. I just making a few tweaks to the design. Really tiny ones. Also I have made a new version Gazzo chuck( same load but prettier) in Steel and I'm spending a lot of time on the crash invaders. I tried to make Richard a set in copper but found the copper I had  to thick and the test chuck is nylon again. I'm making that chuck in steel this week. Nylon chucks are okay ,better that maple in fact , but its easy to cock up the chuck by getting the copper stuck on the bloody thing. Steel is the way to go but they take more time and effort to make. Still not sold the house so should have time to get a few sets out there before I move back to UK. I have done a fair few shows with my set and I love them. I also like the fact they are unique being the only set finished.
