Chipped ivories

[rjwag at pacifier.com]

Hello Michelle, and all who kindly commented,

I continue to manufacture Acrylikey in my brother Richard's memory--and in
great appreciation to his skill and wonderful presence to his customers. 
All profits are donated in his name to Oregon Hemophelia support
organizations.

I am now distributing Acrylikey II through Pianotek Supply Company, and
encourage you to purchase through them.  We are no longer advertising
directly in the PTG Journal.  Though if you don't have an account with
Pianotek, or are a former customer, I can supply you directly.

Acrylikey is a reliable product, and cautions posted in this thread are
most appropriate.  Please use this product carefully in a well-ventilated
area, and with protective gloves (supplied with the kit) as the monomer is
a skin/inhalation irritant if used irresponsibly (as supplied instructions
indicate).

Thank you all for your support of this product; we hope to be able to
extend it for the repair of plastic keytops as well in the future. Our
website, which contains the instructions are located at
