Brackets are done and in my garage. I'll be packing up all the shipments over the next day or so. If there are any last minute orders to throw in the box, now is the time! ;)

Yeah I'm waiting to hear back from the guy making them. He does furniture manufacturing. My guess is he's been busy.
Oh, interesting. Didn't realize you had a guy making them. Just figured they were a manufactured product by Scepter or someone like that. If you get them before shipping the York bracket, I'll take one. If not....oh well, I'll just make other order when they come in.

Well this one isn't one of my products. Its a carry over from my AJIK acquisition.

Does that mean you may or may not get more?
 
Just wanted to post up some pics of the completely finished product. Folks should start seeing shipping emails going out pretty soon. I'm trying to get through all of them and deal with current/waiting orders as well :P

Looks really nice!
 
Oh that looks nice!
 
Dammit!!!!!

Why can't things just go smoothly?!?!

Alright so these were in my truck to get dropped off this morning to the post office. BUT, buddy came over with his 80 and we just got to talking about the kits. He wanted to see them and now wants to get on the list for the next batch. But thats another story. I was test fitting the bracket onto his head and I realized something that made my heart sink...one of the bolts I got is the wrong size. Either I wrote them down wrong or they were just...I dunno. Either way I f'd up. So I jammed over to the Lowes for some of their metric Grade 8s and I bought out everything from the two stores near me. Problem is its not enough to ship out everything. So there will be a day or two delay while I get the remaining bolts in that are the correct size. Not a massive issue but still a pain in the neck.

Which brings me to another issue... :crybaby:

For reasons I just cannot figure out, my shopping cart allowed ONE too many of the kits to be sold. So I am backorder on one kit. Now convention dictates that I take the last person and say sorry and then refund their money and then I never hear from that person again because they waited months for nothing. BUT...there are also some of you that are just taking this kit and letting it sit in your wine cellars to let it age. YOU are the ones I'd like to talk to. IF you know for a fact that you are not going to even touch this install for another 5-6 months then I would like to offer you $100 in store credit. This way the folks that are itching to install can install and those that are just going to sit on it can let it age like a fine wine...or a stinky cheese.

Takers? I will be doing another run of these in a few months.

So are some kits shipping and some in a few days once you get more hardware? Or will all be shipped at the same time.
I got excited when I received the tracking # .

Some are indeed shipping/already shipped. The rest is waiting for complete hardware. I'm likely going to take a long drive a little later to see if I can get some more hardware going. I don't want people to wait any longer than needed. :(
 
I am cool getting mine without that last correct bolt. I'm happy to go to my local Lowes and get it since you cleaned yours out. Just let me know which bolt to get.
 
Why can't anyone keep a decent stock of bolts? :bang:

A few more of the kits went out today. Little more than halfway.

Still looking for that one person that is going to let this sit on their shelf. Anyone? Anyone?
 
Dude, i am happy to wait a little longer. I'm in my new house but the wife has a honey do list longer than my long thing. Plus i have a travel schedule from heven (wife says hell but what does she know...). Plus i really want the tank kit and just need to figure out how that miraculously appears without her indoors spotting it...:flipoff2:
 
Put me in line for the next production run pls. Ill need the full kit, my york is already modded but gathering dust on the shelf.
 
WOW. That is a thing of beauty.:beer:
