Work in Progress and Order Update.

Post by Mike Stannard (toyrific) »

Hi Guys

With the large influx of orders I have received over the last 2 months I want to keep you updated on progress. I have received from the photo-etch company all parts to complete current orders with a extras. I have also cast all white metal and resin parts for these orders.

Miniature fixtures are now in stock, see separate post.

Since Oct 13, 2011 I have shipped 24 orders leaving around 60 to complete most of which are waiting on the parts I have just received or cast.

I am still waiting on delivery of the bronze cast parts from my new caster, I have picked up 600 wing nuts when I visited him three weeks ago, at that time all wax castings had been completed, but some bronze cast parts he had done were not to the standard I required and I asked for them to be recast. The parts I am waiting for are the Tiger tow rope brackets, the MG AA mount and parts for the Sternantenna D. I do not know when these will be completed. For anyone having these parts in their orders I will ship the rest of your orders as they are ready and send bronze parts once in stock.

Here are pictures of over 60 lbs of white metal cast into parts.
