I collected all the parts from the foundry today. I'm planning on post machining the pintles next week then they can all get sent out.

Anyone who had an order for parts but no pintles can expect an email in the next couple of days to arrange posting.

Thanks for the patience, sorry it's taken longer than I would have liked but the foundry have been very busy.

Cheers

Ben

The pintles are ready. I've started boxing up the outstanding orders, could you send me your address if you are waiting for them please. If I haven't heard in a couple of days I'll start chasing you up.

Thanks

Ben

Ben I want to thank you for the work you did. I recieved the 4 pintles and the Axe head mount and am very happy with the way they turned out.

Thanks again!

Hey Ben

I'm wondering if there is any chance you could get some of the large thumb screws that hold the lower engine panels in place cast up. There is 8 in total per carrier and they always seem to be missing

I know I would be down for 8.
