On the last day, tomorrow, I close the reservation for the purchase of the L60. If someone still wants to participate, last hours available to do it.
Thanks Ivano

Dear friends,
many write to me because they are afraid of not being able to mount the engine. Look, it's extremely easy, I don't provide instructions because it's all very intuitive, just look at the many photos on the forum, there are no particular changes to make. Even if you decide to complete it with the wonderful details created by Phill, there are no complicated jobs to do, even those without Phill's skill can do it. Anyway me and probably, I think, Phil too, we are available to help you in case of problems. Some people tell me they thought it was cheaper. I'm sorry, but to have an excellent product, where it is not necessary to clean or adjust all the pieces, as happens in other kits, but just mount it, I think the price is more than good. I remind you that many parts are in 3D and there are more than 200 bolts. With few sales, at the moment we have made maybe 6 reservations, it was not possible to do better. I'm sorry, but that's what I can offer you. Thanks Ivano

Dear gentlemen friends,
i believe that the reservation can be considered completed.
In light of the numbers collected, it is with regret that I inform you that I will not be able to exercise the lowest price.
The engines sold are less than 15. To confirm the purchase please pay the deposit by Sunday. The balance before shipping (I hope before August 15). Please pay with the formula "transfer money to friends" otherwise I refuse the payment, alternatively you must add 6.5%. You can also pay by bank transfer. I have communicated to everyone the cost of the purchase, but if I have forgotten someone, please contact me again.
By Sunday I also accept latecomers, we are very far from 15 units. For a check on the number of engines sold, I cannot list the buyers for privacy reasons. If you want to check it, declare the purchase in the forum. Thank you all for your patience and collaboration, I remain available for any information.
Please communicate the shipping address.
My PayPal is: ivano.costantini@alice.it
I hope you understand what I wrote. Thanks again Ivano

Dear friends,
9 people booked the engine, but currently only 2
sent the advance. I have no problems, the price I communicated remains the same even for only two engines. I understand that many of you have work commitments and maybe only tomorrow will be able to devote yourself to the hobby and send the advance. Please, I kindly ask you to communicate if you are no longer interested. This is to avoid misunderstandings, misunderstandings and delays to the detriment of those who paid the deposit. On Monday I will send the files to the printing laboratory, it would be a problem to have to change the order. I hope you understand the usefulness of being informed, there are no problems.
I thank you all again and wish you a good Sunday. Ivano

Some who bought the engine,
they asked me if in the kit there is the plate that you see in the photograph.
I didn't foresee it, if you want it with your name, I can do it but I can't insert it as a gift, if you want it it costs € 13.00
Tell me you're interested. Thanks Ivano

First 3D pieces ready, I hope to start shipping the kits next week.
As suggested by Phil, I inserted a spring in the kit to make the pipes and I made small flanges that were not foreseen. They have bubbles but can be eliminated by shortening the stem with a little sandpaper.
Thank Ivano

Another part of the pieces is ready.
Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to ship before mid-August. I will have to move shipments by the end of the month.
Attention, the pieces will be of different colors (white, black, gray) but nothing changes. There are only several printing laboratories, unfortunately one, halfway through the job, his machine broke down.
Thanks Ivano

As I told you, when the 3D parts of the L60 were printed, the printer in a workshop broke down. Today I have recovered, at a good price, some pieces with small printing defects. I could supply a motor at a very discounted price. Imperfections can be masked with a little work and aging. I'm sure once placed in the tub, they wouldn't have been noticed. If anyone is interested contact me and I will show them photos of the defects. Thanks Ivano
