[Sweet Eustace]

well even though I knew all along I left room for memory errors now that the dimensions are posted I have to say that the world is still flat I have seen bigger and Ian it sounds like a pan and look for a pan tuner named Roberts in your area if he is still alive he has a pan more than four feet in diameter and it too sounds like a pan, Elvis may also still be alive as well, currently there is a bigger pan as a matter of fact pans in St james i will try to get the info soon

Kudos to anyone who chooses to be innovative.  I would have love to hear the tone.  Can someone inform us about the tone.

German pantuner Eckhard Schulz made two (2) pans for a fountaine-sculpture in Norway, measuring 115cm in diameter.
