All,

 

Thanks very much to those that participated. It was greatly appreciated. It
seems all that got them are very happy. If you ordered you should have them
all by now. If you don't have your roofs by mid next week contact me and we
will work it out.

 

I **really** did not want to be on the deadbeat S project organizers list.
Except for the upfront mold costs from a **very generous** participant, I
did not take money until I was sure it would happen. From that time until
roofs were in hand was about 2 months so I shipped pretty quickly as well.
God like? Maybe not but if you insist. And most with the smaller orders got
a nice white box to keep their models in when (and if) they get them done.
That was on me..

 

As Mike stated new things **can be** made with a group as small as 5
interested people. My sky did not fall yet. No doom n gloom in my small
town. I wanted - I made - I shipped. Further once I got the group organized
we communicated directly -truly in about 30 emails total start to finish. No
need to make everyone read the email updates on the project. The partipancts
had it "really rough". They wrote checks and mailed them! I did everything
else! I am good that though... it was well worth it.

 

I said the roof project was a 1 and done. But there is a chance I will be
placing a **much smaller** second order soon. If you want more roofs, or did
not order any the first time around NOW is the time to contact me directly.
Same as last time - $25.00 each + shipping.
http://www.lanestrains.com/Reading_Roof.jpg I will say with complete
certainty there will not be a third order.

 

Finally, the phase 2 is going to be making the roof vents later this year.
It looks like I am going to have to make a trip to 1 of 2 places that could
have cars with the roof vents on them  and try to make a sketch with
dimensions somehow - without getting arrested. I have scoured the 4 corners
looking for a vent drawing and have not found one yet.

 

So contact me directly to get on the about to be formed >>Reading Roof
Vent<< group list. My current plan is to make the masters in Solidworks and
get them cast in brass. Current eta on the vents will be late summer or
early fall.

 

 

 

Thank You,
Bill Lane
