Massive undertaking. Don't rush it. The end result will be worth the wait.

Yeppers. I can just imagine the stage they're at currently. "What the Hell. How did that happen?" / "I dunno, the first one didn't do that." / "The first one is 1/4" short". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

Actually its the metal internals we made like factory, but they are making it hard to demold. We have made some modifications to it to help and have cut the demold time from 6 hours to about 1. Still need to make a tweek or two but these are not just popping out of the mold. This is the only thing that is slowing up production. We will be starting to crank these out but if we fine tune the process before mass production

WOW! Perfect timing for me, Mark. I wanted this to happen while I'm installing the AC and it looks as if it will. Hot Damn, I'm stoked. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Yes I posted once we pulled the 1st plug and had anticipated that since we had duplicated the factory metal it would be just popping them out as the plug was out on less than 60 seconds. I knew the metal would add a little time to it. but it was just too rigid so we redesigned and made metal. That's what we are pulling now and it's finally getting to something that resembles production we need to be able to pull 3 a day minimum as there are 60 of you that I need to fill orders for. I saw this with the bumper tops when we started them and and have improved the process the point we can get up to 4 a day with them. They originally were 2-3 a week.

Take as much time as you need, Mark. Maybe the shift console covers will be ready to ship by then and you can toss it as well as the other goodies in my order all in the one big box (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

No rush on mine either, Mark. I'm dealing with racing at Daytona this month and would not be able to get to it until late October anyway, so it's a winter project. Put me at the end of the queue. - GA

I am supposed to get the first one, and it hasn't arrived yet. I haven't been bugging him, since I don't need it right away, and I know that he is just as eager to get them out as we are to receive them. He was waiting on custom boxes, and that can take time as well.

Let's let Mark enjoy his son's wedding weekend and not have to worry about us product-hungry tools. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Absolutely let Mark enjoy this weekend. I had no idea he was old enough to have a son getting married! Cool your impatient jets for a few days! Mark always delivers! I know, it's like being a kid waiting to open your presents under the Christmas tree or Hanuhkah Bush that you've been looking at and shaking for the last couple of weeks! Hang in there a little longer!

I agree on letting Mark enjoy the wedding. I really didn't expect him to even read this until next week. Just was wondering if anyone had so they could post a pic.

Ken, Matt is bringing yours with him on the plane Thursday. We are bringing a minor blem to give away and one other dash. When Matt returns this next week we will be shipping out at least the next 4. And production will go up from there.
