I'm done with knobs too. Warm up those sharpies! :lol:

Mudders are the best customers in the world, seriously.

Drew,
This is sad for us, customers...
I just realized that the knob I got from you last week probably was one of the last you made. I'm happy with the look.
I have a few questions on your dash kit, but looks like its irrelevant now, but I glad I got one last Fall. It seems to me that TEMP gauge is calibrated too high for 2F as mine moves only to 125-150F max, which is still on the left of the scale.
What if I or anyone else need an extra knob...??? Where should we look for one..., especially with custom graphics.
BTW, I'm not exactly sure what you mean by your customer service getting bad. My personal experience is showing great service.
I hope and I think many other MUD members will too, that you restart your Cruiser related business when you'll settle in new place, may be as a second, weekend job/hobby.
...and congratulations with marriage...
 
Congratulations on your impending marriage and best wishes on your career changes Drew!

But, boy am I ever glad I bought an instrument cluster kit when I did - one of the better mods I've ever made for driving my Cruiser for sure! Thanks for making them.

Regarding your 2F... interesting, I haven't heard that one before. Is it possible you're just running cold? The gauge calibration is set by autometer and shouldn't be affected.

If any of my customers must have an extra knob they know where to contact me; I'm not going anywhere.

Life is just complicated right now; my customer service has been getting worse and worse and its just time to call it before I ruin my reputation.

I'm getting married this year and I'm trying hard to change careers and move across the country. Plus my landlord has decided to sell the place I'm living in so my lease could any at any moment... my workshop needs to be streamlined cuz I won't be able to pack it up with only 30 days notice... I'm very messy.

I might start things up again when I get settled wherever I land. Or maybe I'll try something new. Who knows.

... plus there are some jackasses in Chat that I REALLY want to give a piece of my mind, but couldn't so long as everyone on 'mud was a potential customer. :D (kidding..... or am i?)

Hope you and you ideas stick around. You have got some really good ones. The ring video just blew my mind.
 
Well crap!

Now I gotta break down and make my own bracket. I too have been meaning to buy a kit for literally a couple years. Can that EL(?) wire be bought elsewhere?

And knobs too?! I need,like, ten of them!

Good luck with everything, thats a very busy year!

I'm pretty disappointed too, I need to order knobs and was about to get a list together including a gauge package.

Guess it's back to the drawing board.
 
I kept meaning to order a gauge cluster, I'm bummed for me, but I'm happy for you. Been married 27 years and have 2 great boys. Best thing I ever did. Good luck!
 
The woman (kllyjansen here on mud) and I went out and got s***faced tonight and she said she'd do another bracket run if they all got spoken for. Provided I post this before we sober up the offer will stand...

The minimum run is 12x, so post up in this thread if you're in.
