Talking Spalted Pecan custom CC

Here is a picture of my newly acquired Splated Pecan coffee cup purchased today from the builder in Blanco, TX. at a farmers market. I have not had much time with it yet, but I will get back to you on it once I give it the once through and it opens up a little. Well, if it opens up a little it may spill so I will keep it closed and see how it goes....

That is deserving of good coffee. DON'T ever waste it on cheap coffee! Meantime, have one while you play a tune!

Nice! Be sure to keep it humidified with plenty of liquids.

Attach to a ToneRite for two days and your coffee will taste better.
