$46 bid. Yeah, I know, I'm cheaping out. But I've got to buy my Yankee $ with Canadian ones.Ouch.

Hey man, that's quite alright. Whatever it takes.
New bid-46.00 US, just a bit more Canadian. The rate sure isn't as beneficial (to us) as it used to be. Felt like a lotto winner when we went up there and hit the exchange window. No more.

Pierre, I rcvd the pkg from Gary. Slit the wrapper to make sure there's 2 dvd's in the case. Yup.
Figured I'd best check to see if they play too. Yup.
I think you're gonna love this. If you remain the high bidder.
I've been doing this work for a long time, but certainly don't profess to being a crown specialist. Despite my familiarity with the process, Gary opens some new doors. And his explanations are easy to pick up.
I don't know the run time of this dvd (I'm still on the first one) but I hope to be able to view them in their entirety for my own education and to be able to review them if necessary.
Thanks for your patience.
We have 46.00 on Conquering Crown and if this respite is any indication, we are nearing the closing of the auction of this item.

Sounds encouraging... 
I'm stoked at the idea of learning how to do this task properly. I want to become more versatile and professional.
Did only one small crown job: porch ceiling, milled my own from simple 1x4 pine with equal spring angle, four inside corners, so it was pretty straightforward.
Worked out the compound angle by trial and error with short pieces, then went at it, coped corners were tight. Client was happy - so was I. I realize real crown is another kettle of fish, so I don't have the confidence to tackle the real thing right now. Sounds like Gary's CDs will change that.
Calvin, take your time and keep on viewing those CDs... but hurry up and shut this auction down before Heck changes his mind. 
Whatever the outcome, it's been fun playing.

Ding Ding Ding. We have a winner!
You have the desire and the 46 bucks.
Heck won't mind, we're close to retail. You have expressed the extra that put you over the top.
Contact me with your mailing address and we'll arrange payment and shipping.
Congratulations!

Congrats, Pierre. Here's what I am thinking: Once you and Cal learn all about crown, I'll just call you guys!
Saved $50, hee hee hee
