Yes that helps
Alright. I guess I should do a run!
Retiring Wannawanga levers is a big scare for me
You bastards.
I literally just ordered one from Roman.

Levers are in the making!

Wicked excited!
For those who were waiting for my MPP steel cast shroud I have some bad news.
After 7 months of development and delays I finally received a large batch of the steel shrouds. They were not at all what I was expecting and unfortunately I had to reject them all. None of them were good. They are all very soft and imprecise: unevenly shaped, bumps, soft corners and edges. In short: not the quality I can offer and I'm now back to square one. The images show what I mean.
These were not made by the same company who did my last batch. For vague reasons, they were not interested in another run. Carbon steel casting is not a very common request.
I now have to look for another manufacturer. This shouldn't be too difficult, but hopefully it'll go smoother and quicker this time!
I am very sorry for those who have been waiting this long! I will do my best to offer these again and I will not rest until the quality is according to my specs.
The design has been slightly improved over my last shroud, with a better fit and improved overall dimensions to replicate the shroud of the original prop.
PS: This flawed batch is not for sale: they will be returned to the manufacturer and will not be offered as B-grade.

Thanks for the update buddy, what is it with these manufactures do they just not care and have the attitude close enough is good enough just give us your money no wonder we have a global quality problem with manufactured goods, good luck with the next batch

Well, you can't know everything. Even though you are very close!
But no, I didn't mention this before, in order not to feel rushed.
Wicked!
Oooh...I need to get around to doing my ANH Vader...my Roman MPP has just been sitting around forever. I may be placing an order soon.
