Update

I finally went out and got quotes to fabricate my design. The price per unit was all over the place but I finally found a machine shop to fab for a somewhat reasonable price. My only problem now is how many roller barrels I want turned out. The more I have made the cheaper it will be, but I am leaning on an initial run of 20 units.

Please PM me if there is still an interest.

Production Run #1

Here they are, if anyone is still interested PM me for details. I made an initial run of 20. If you are going to the FCU Restoration Rally you may reserve a unit until then.

1. If you are younger than me, you can't be old because I'm NOT!

2. Analog? Shirley, you jest--didn't you just finish making your C-130 digital?

I'm not one to beat my own drum but I'm going to bump this thread. I still have several available, and as I'm getting ready to go on a month long road trip, speak up.

Kip, I will carry to Tim and pay for it, since he is holding a six-pack of the most awesome Zin for me.
