Message: <blockquote data-quote="Chosun Juan" data-source="post: 3475049" data-attributes="member: 92780">Jan, Thanks for the constructive input  :t:  I take it that the 50mm figure would be 50mm+ and include larger sizes, 52mm, 54mm, 56mm, 58mm, and the one 20x60 IS that gets sold every year!  :-OStill 20% is not an insignificant number, especially when we consider that these current optical brick offerings don't exactly make a compelling argument outside of the largely? specialist need customers that buy them. I am sure that a lightweight 50mm as I have described would snag the odd customer or two from other categories ....Perhaps our forum is populated by lots of ex-sawmillers, with 4 fingers left on each hand, and for whom a missing 20% is entirely inconsequential?!    :-O  :brains:   o<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------[ATTACH]603384[/ATTACH]As for the other "keyboard warriors",  I've had an absolute gutful!  :C   :storm:   ...... what's with all the thinly veiled ad hominem attacks?!¿I can guarantee you that unless you are 30 stone Tongan with a 2nd degree black belt, there is no way you would say such things if we were in the same room together (or at least not twice!)Jerry, I'd ask you to explain, but unless you've got a Doctorate in Business Administration, I'm probably not interested .....  |=o|Hermann, who are these forum heroes that you speak of?  ....  can I get an autograph? ....  and does dennis know??   :king:----------------------------------------------------------------------------Unfortunately, several on this forum have "form" ....... and that's not a good thing .........   The disgusting performance on John Cantelo's "Ethics" thread, by Jerry, and stephen b (whose girl's blouse display over an Internet search term of all things! .... I'm still counting to 10 million before addressing that), does you guys no favours at all. If you want to look like a flock of short neck geese - fine.  But do it somewhere else .....Now, can we get back to the topic at hand with some constructive discussion? .......   Chosun   :gh:</blockquote>
