Hello all

I have sent out the details for those who wanted the cast parts, if you haven't had an email from me in the last few days and you do want some parts, sorry, please drop me a PM and we can sort you out some parts.

Thank you all once again for the interest.

Ben

Rich you're on the list, don't panic. Don't want you feeling unloved.

I went to the foundry today and placed the order, thank you all for your interest.

They are busy but I would hope to see the first parts by the end of the month. I appreciate you all want the bits ASAP but our order is pretty small compared to some of the huge castings that they make. The last order took longer than they quoted but the quality was excellent. I'd sooner wait a little longer and get a better set of parts than hurry them and get bits I'm not pleased with.

Thanks again

Ben

I collected all the parts from the foundry today. I'm planning on post machining the pintles next week then they can all get sent out.

Anyone who had an order for parts but no pintles can expect an email in the next couple of days to arrange posting.

Thanks for the patience, sorry it's taken longer than I would have liked but the foundry have been very busy.

Cheers

Ben
