Re: One more time on "6 inch wool", ONLY!

The ruler says 6 1/4" to 6 3/4" depending on how puffy they are.

Re: One more time on "6 inch wool", ONLY!

I think 6 inch refers to the size as measured from the back of the pad

Wanna, you are correct. measured from the back but the hairs extend to the 6 inch range. We do make 6 inch wool pads in all our standard colored textures that being Black, Yellow, Green, Blue and White and also Lambswool in our double sided version only with the quick connect using our Edge2000 adapter. These pads are available from all Presta distributors which include many body shop suppliers. We also allow people to special order them through any of their favorite online retail stores like AG, Danase, and whomever you want to ask. We specialize in special orders but the 6 inch wool pads are not really special order because we have been making them for many years under the Presta Qwik pad name but in our Edge2000 system. I hope this clears this up finally.

I hope this clears this up finally.

First off when I measure a wool pad, it is the diameter (largest distance across the "back" of the pads "backing"). This does not include wool fibers sicking out or anything else!
Therefore I am talking about a 6 inch backed wool pad, nothing else! The backing that is measured is some type of fiber/composition (none of the wool is measured).

EDGE, I have contacted you a couple times on this without any real success. I really think it is case of you not stopping to really read what I am saying . Please read:

This is what I want, but absolutely nowhere on your website or talking to you guys has produced what I want, even though you INSIST it does, I don't think you are really listening! If I am wrong I will definitely apologize, now, one more time:

I just don't know what else I can say! WHOOPS, yes I do, Edge give me the part numbers for the 6 " wool pads in different strengths/colors that you say you have! I will put in an order immediately!!!!!!!!!!
-----------------------------WOOL-ONLY-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I want "6 inch wool pads, one sided measured from the back diameter of the pads base material" !
I do not want double sided, don't ask me again why, I don't want them!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You DO have 1 sided wool pads that are 7 and 1/2 inch in diameter and I have a bunch of them!!! Don't need more!

I'm not saying anything about what you ask, what I'm saying is the way *you* ask it. We all ask and answer different matters, but the tome we do it makes a lot of influence in the type of answer we get, don't you think? I have nothing against you or anybody in this forum, but we can all help you if you help us as well, so please, be a little bit nicer, that's all...

Sorry to be so asinine, but this has become a "Holy War", LOLOL!

Changeling,
I find your tone both on this forum thread and in your emails to me very abrasive, aggressive, and rude as do many others on this thread. I have answered your questions as others have many times politely and it seems you do not want that answer. If you would read my post I made if very clear that we DO NOT MAKE 6inch WOOL PADS IN ANYTHING BUT OUR DOUBLE SIDED SYSTEM, you even quoted me saying that.

Re: One more time on "6 inch wool", ONLY!

i normally would not even say anything, but after reading through this thread i can't help myself. i believe it is truly a case of the OP being oblivious to his own personality. i don't think any harm is intended, but the WAY things are worded, stated, CAPITALIZED, and excessive use of "!!!!!!" at the end of each sentence is his undoing.

i've also seen him briefly mention reasons why he "goes off the handle" at times...something about medication?...or health issues. can't really remember. either way, i think the OP should simply take a step back and listen to constructive criticism and work on his perceived demeanor on these forums. typing online and in emails is much more difficult to convey feeling properly...so if it's a personality issue that just isn't translating well on the computer...please take it to heart and try to do better.
