A bit off topic, but perhaps of interest to some of you folks. I have some really nice triangles for sale made by the master himself Donne Montoucet. They are all in the 9" size and made out of antique hay bailing tines. Apparently Don is no longer making these due to the fact he can't find the material. If you are interested just shoot me an email with an offer, would sell one, or can sell the whole lot.

for what it's worth, these triangles are simply amazing. in the world of triangles, i guess the analogy would be the difference between an ariette and an acadian. the tone that donne's triangles ring out is simply awesome. get one, these are the last of a dying breed, no more hay tines to use to work with.....

I got one of Larry's triangles said to be made out of hay tines. Would they be any different? I am not sure if he sells them any more or not.

I've had one of Larry's (the rake tine ones) for several years, and it too has soul-stirring tone. I had heard that he didn't have a source for that metal anymore, but that's just a rumor.

I'll soon be able to compare the too, since I just ordered one of the Don Montoucet ones: not because I don't love Larry's 'tit fer, but because I want to make sure I have one of the good ones in case anything happens to the one I already have.

A little greedy I guess

If you have any don montoucet triangles left I would love to buy one from you. 337-654-8113

Toby! What's up my brother! I hope he still has some for sale.
