I'm gonna go out on a limb and say no, since I think he has sold all of his initial line...

Perhaps not these inital ones , but a run shortly after.
Again, I feel that these bartops could have sooooo much appeal.
I'd also be willing to bet that locally (Durham, Ontario) there would be people who woulc/could offer such servies with a kit of this nature. If not even buy in bulk, fix up and sell.
None the less, I think a fully assembled (not working, but built) would be a good idea.

I know the intention is to assemble them so people can see a built project, but will you be dressing them up/staging them (not sure of a better term) with joysticks, buttons, bezel, marquee etc to show a true finished project?
I ask for people who are perhaps less visual who'd like see that. I've been showing these to a few buddies who forever ask me about my machines but would never pop for one (be it cash, or wife wont let them, etc). Telling them these would be an awesome alternative. Most of them responded with "I'll wait til I see yours!" LOL - cheap b@stards!
I think for us involved in the hobby simply taking a look at the MDF model built gives us a good idea, but for others who'd like something for a man cave and are not in the hobby that idea makes sense.

It's certainly an idea that I'm going to work with, yes. Haruman is right, unfortunately. Right now, this "first order" will be in the door/out the door, with a quality control check followed by a brief photo op. I do plan to place a new order almost immediately afterward, as I will be opening the pre-orders of the products, and I do want to have a couple of 'spares' available for my own projects... ...especially considering I spent a part of yesterday disassembling a couple of 17" LCD's from TKW4rr10r - so, there's that.
:D
Now, for the bad news...
I've just (like, just) got off an hour long phone call with my CNC provider, as we were discussing the ongoing delays, and when I hope to receive the wood. As it turns out, the specific issue isn't with my designs at all. It was determined that the CAM program is ignoring most of the arcs in my files. I was asked what program I had designed in, as the CAM software technicians thought that it was because of an import issue, but I have been working natively in Solidworks, so my CNC guy agrees that it's the CAM software that's at fault.
In his own words, "we've spent considerable money on this CAM software, and they told us that they will work 100% with Solidworks, so it's up to them to fix this for us." So, he's back on top of them, pushing them to put out a fix as soon as possible.
So, I'm pretty happy with that. Sure, there's a delay, and I'm forced to 'suck it up' and tell all of you who have been very patiently waiting that yes, there's another delay. But, the fact that it's not a problem with the work I've done makes me very happy. My CNC guy will work through it (hopefully quickly!) and we'll be able to put out a great product.
Thanks again!

Well your other option is send it over here and I can convert it to something he can deal with right away, I ran into this with several files sent over by users and how Mach 3 etc deals with arcs. Open offer.
