Quite obviously, and has always been obvious, he's obsessed with quality. The concern I would think'd be more: will some economic event shut him down, etc?

He seems to have it well thought out, getting his basic components, such as screws, bolts, and springs stocked up before going after the bigger pieces. He's sinking quite a bit of money on this venture, but it doesn't seem he's stretching himself thin to get it accomplished. The fact he's machining some of his own parts would lead me to think that he's got a pretty good business and/or job to justify the cost of the equipment needed.

shorthair:
Seems likely. And I don't think he'd leave anyone hanging high and dry. Not that it was a concern of mine, though a consideration, just that others might be most worried about this possible aspect. I'm looking forward to getting one, for sure, though I'm still wishing I'd known about that miracle deal on ebay, recently. If I hadn't liked it, I know I could've kept the other parts and still got my money back on it. Ah, fixation with the past.

Cool, thanks for the info Havok.

Sure hope the yokes get done soon, and this isn't a drag-on through the end of 2007 to complete.

If I knew it would take such a long time, I'd make my own.

I guess we'll just be patient and see how this RAM Controls stuff works out. From the looks of it, I think my pre-order will be worth the wait.

David said in his e-mail to me that it wouldn't be much longer, so hopefully that is the case. Unfortunately he has to rely on another vendor to get the powder coating completed, but his initial run with the new vendor was good. Even with the e-bay yoke that went recently, I'd rather have this - it will be better upgraded components than NOS, and it is brand new.

polaris:
its likely these new ones are gonna make old ones cheaper i reckon, for the price why not buy new
