Thanks Inigo. Much appreciatedNo worries at all by my side. I totally understand it.
Hey. Sorry. It's not that straight forward unfortunately. The order was placed weeks ago, and there are all sorts of other parts whose orders have been completed. The lazer cut plates/slothfurnace cards/3D printed parts/screws/brass. Most of these were ordered in the quantities needed. So adding one extra kit would cost way too much unfortunately. The order for these last few parts is actually in progress too, so adding parts now isn't that straight forward.Can you not add on a few more orders if they have not yet started manufacture.? Cheers.
No worries Dave I just really want one. I just don't want the next run to not have enough people and it doesn't go ahead, fingers crossed though I will get one eventually.Hey. Sorry.

Really sorry.
Now that the manufacturer seems to have caught up, I don't think the second run will take anywhere near as long as this one. Especially as they're familiar with my models/drawings. This one just happened to drop at the worst possible time.
There are a couple of kits on this run that haven't been paid for yet, so there's still the slight possibility of a couple of kits going spare. These are difficult times though, so I'd just like to give people a chance to pay/respond before offering their kits out to other people.
Hope that's ok.
Cheers,
Dave
There seems to be a fair bit of interest so far. I've got really high hopes on the quality of these parts, and the finished hilts that people build with them, so hopefully that should generate enough interest to get the second run off the groundNo worries Dave I just really want one.

Hi.Hey Dave, is everyone paid up on this.? or is there still a chance of a place.?
Great fingers crossed until then, if not hopefully as you said a second wave will be possible.Hi.
There are a few places that haven't been paid for yet, so there's a chance of a place. I'll be offering any unpaid places out when everything has arrived and the kits are ready to send out. Giving people a chance to pay for their spots up until then though if that's ok.
Cheers
Great news**UPDATE**
I have news! I was just checking my online account on my manufacturer's website, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that 3/4 of the CNC parts are finished, and were "SHIPPED" on 01/06!!
The body section is still "in production", but I can't imagine it being too far behind!
THANK YOU everyone for your patience! It's been a long wait, but things are finally moving!

Exciting times! These should be with me by Tuesday apparently. I'll be getting them sent out ASAP, once I've checked everything over.
Thanks again for your patience everyone! There's a light at the end of the tunnel!
