Does anyone know how Schaeffer panels compare to Stooge panels?

Does the finish match MOTM panels?

Has anyone tried silk screening MOTM blanks?

Schaeffer panels are very nice but the finish is completely different.
Several people have them and think thay are quite nice. Some of the nicest
ones I have seen are on JH's site.

That is what Dave and I did for the first run of Stooge panels. We did 127
panels and our profit was $0, nada, nothin'. So, all we do differently
today is make our own MOTM blanks. I am careful to use the exact same
paint materials that Paul does. But, I use my own painter, so the texture
varies slightly.

We price all the printing at exactly cost. Our mark up is what we make on
the metal that goes behind them. I would make exactly the same selling
blanks. But, we don't do that. That's Paul's gig. :)

I have been getting a LOT of inquiries about panels in the last couple of
days since I made the announcement that we are about ready to take orders.
I apologize for not personally answering each and every one with my normal
speed. However, it has been the week from hell at my day gig. I have not
even been able to get my grass mowed (not yet this year).

My sister and husband are good friends of mine. His father died yesterday.
So, I am off to KY tomorrow and will lose another day to driving and such.
BUT, when I get home, I plan to post the pricing information and the
graphics of all available panels in GIF and PDF formats for easy downloading
and viewing. I already have the graphic files up loaded and need only to
finalize the HTML information, links and pricing chart.

If I can get home early enough to get this done, I plan to start taking
panel orders on Monday. I will try to have all your personal inquiries
answered by Monday evening.
