Wow, amazing bit of your collection (which I assume this is only a small cross-section of), thanks for sharing. ^^Those rickwesti are killer; I'd only seen the slings before.

Fabertism · Feb 12, 2014

I have your book, and I think you're amazing. I hope to meet you sometime. I've had T's all my life, and recently my son (7) has taken an interest in my spiders. He has an A. avicularia sling that he adores.

Amazing Ts, esp the Harpactira pulchripes and Pachistopelma bromelicola. Maybe move the spider shoppe logo towards the legs a bit? Or increase the transparency? Hope to see some P. bromelicola slings soon!
