Thanks for all the info on Coquille board. It's a shame that Ross Baord
doesn't exist anymore. It seems that an enterprising entrepreneur would do
well to start producing something similar to it. Someone mentioned that
Ross Board accepted carbon dust very well which I can verify. Many of
Grace's drawings are carbon dust and the quality appears to be superb.
Elaine mentioned the texture on Ross 00 is almost impossible to see. I had
to get out a hand lens to confirm that this stuff was really a textured
board! Amazing!
I'll talk with Bill Brudon (who I see every couple of weeks) and Gerry
Hodge about this and relay what they have to say.
