I emailed him a few weeks ago and heard the same

Thats actually a bit discouraging. I would be willing to buy one non-powdercoated. Maybe he will have them ready by my tentative purchase date ( january/february )
He's been saying the same thing since may. I'm believing he's more interested in selling the parts and the whole unit is going to end up vaporware. I really hope not. The work he has done has been high quality.

Spoke to David,
Hi Matt,
I've bought some mid-range powdercoating equipment so I can attempt to do this in-house. I've been going back and forth with several vendors and none of them can seem to get it just right, so I've taken the plunge to just do it myself. I'm committed to getting this project finished for several reasons, one of which is so that I have controllers for the SW cockpit cabinets I'm producing. :-)
Anyhow, I don't have the oven setup yet (it's a huge 8' x 10' production oven which requires a hookup I don't have at the plant. I'm having the utilities come out to add the service so I can hook up the oven. Once that's done, I'm all over the powdercoating myself. I'm going to hire a temp. pc operator to help with the job.
I'm not going to let the project slip away. It's just taking <<FAR>> longer than anticipated.
Talk to you soon.
David

i shall consider myself chastised for loosing faith, and continue to sit quietly awaiting the promised goods.................
although i do have a couple chunks of aluminum that would make a nice pair of side panels and a base set aside just in case.
