Hi All,

I've received several messages and seems there is some interest in a recent fan/shroud support I created for my 3.6 project. Sending this thread out to gauge interest in producing a run of these, photos of the prototype below (shown in ABS)....

Generalities:
- 16 gauge steel, easily customizable for each build, and allows the 'garage builder' to weld
- Added 1" on top and bottom. The user/myself can either bend the top and bottom to be used as an additional air-direct for pusher/puller fans, or as a support for aluminum/fiberglass shroud OR the excess can be trimmed to more accurately reflect the below photo.
- In production now, 1-2 week to delivery
- Targeting 'initial run' price of $120 per piece, will increase.

I emailed him about 2 weeks ago and he said he was leaving for a vacation. He didn't say when he was going to be back. To answer your question He was making a list of people that wanted these brackets or whole setup. He was going to work on it when he returned.
I can send him an email to see where this stands and to check in here.

Hi All - Thanks for the patience.

Traveling alot for work currently. With COVID still a hot-topic, I've limited travel to just myself to avoid our installers being in the field.

Yes, still doing these. To those interested in just the bracket, total is $128 before shipping. Comes pre-bent, painted, and ready to install fans.
