I know there has been a lot of talk about this stand. I was telling somebody in Canada about it. And neither of us knows if free matter will ship to Canada from the US. Is there a way to get a hold of Thomas to find out if he ships to Canada free matter? And also this person has some questions about the stand, and the link I had was only for the form. If somebody has an email Address, you could send it to me privately if you want. Mary
