Might as well start taking deposits (so long as you know you can deliver)....

That way you're not gonna go thru all the effort, just to have only a few go thru with the deal...

My Paypal is ready....

dont you think I should wait until I have the second gen bar ready to show, and have a firm price on the product before I take anyones money? I do, Im willing to lose a few interested parties because it took a couple weeks, rather than have people get all bent out of shape 'cause they didnt have all the info when they sent me money.

Dont worry, its all gonna happen, please just be patient for another week!

You're doing the right thing... Wait till you have everything in line... Dont take on too much too soon too fast... If some people have to wait a lil longer, it'll be worth it, for you and them...

Well, unfortunately our timing was just bad, because my builder was gone on vacation from Thursday to yesterday. But he assured me he would be all over this as soon as he got back. I havent confirmed this yet but he was supposed to have left something with the laser cutter to have a test run made for me to look at early this week. Once I approve that piece then we're having the full run cut and at the same time he will be finish welding the protoype generation II bar up so I can take photos and we can start putting names on the list then.

Remember this as well, I am covering the cost for a run of 20 out of my pocket, SO, as soon as someone pays for one, I ship one...no need to wait until we have 20 on the list.

Expect a more exciting update this coming Friday!

That's a nice looking design Weezl. I'll be in for one of these. Since I used to live in Corvallis I'm up there fairly often so you won't have to ship it. How soon do you think they'll be done? I'm assuming it'll come unfinished so it can be painted to match?

yes they will be unfinished, ready for your own paint/powdercoat/whatever.

and I expect to be able to start shipping these a week from this Friday...but please wait for the Group buy thread coming soon for all the updated information.

Usually I reserve this smilie for either JetJock or IJ, but for just this one time, I'm giving it to a mere mortal. Weezl, this is for you...............:bowdown:



Good job Weez. Hope everything goes smooth for you on this GB. I know I've got my paypal ready willing and able...............lol

Well, so long as the world doesnt stop rotating, and the earwig in my brain doesnt chew through something important...I would say this friday evening.

I must say that you did a kick ass job with the brace, and that I'm glad that I took the time to read this while I kept trying to gather the classes online for university :). I just hope that you do at least give some sort of announcement on Friday since I'll be at a friend's house for a while, therefore having access to a PC. Otherwise, I just might miss out on the GB for lack of a PC back at home still (won't have a new one until August).


Anyhow, can you at least give us a fair estimate about how much it will cost? I need to know how much $$ I need to borrow for the piece and for S&H here to Puerto Rico. I won't be getting more cash until August and I don't want to miss out on this great GB (would be my first too)!!!

I like it so much I just traded my targa supra for an Iroc with t-tops. It's clean, just not my style. Good luck with the group buy, sounds like a lot of interest!

Guys, this is not a group buy thread, and I cant tell you how much they are yet, and Im not going to calculate shipping until I know exactly how much they weigh and what size box I need for them. Please just wait a couple more days.
