Hi Terry, I built the templates and cut the formica pieces out already... I checked all the pieces against 2 of my HF100Rs' and they are a perfect fit..
I bought 20 shipping boxes from Uline
http://www.uline.com/Product/Detail/...y-Fold-Mailers
and I received them today. With Shipping and Tax for these boxes my bill was $185.00 so thats $10.00 a box that will be added to the Kits shipping charges. Multiple kits can definitely fit in one box as these boxes are 200# test and are adjustable up to 6 inches in depth.
I built a jig to heat the brown pieces up so that they can be bent. Luckily I used scrap pieces of burl to test this procedure because I cracked a few pieces and melted a few others. I think I finally figured out how hot the gun needs to be and how long the heat needs to be applied.
At his point I bought one 4 x 8 sheet of White and one 4 x 8 sheet of Brown which gave me 3 sets of White materials and 4 or 5 sets of Brown materials.
So I basically have 3 complete kits at this time.
Given that, I have 2 sets sold to Jay from California which leaves me with one set left over from the first batch.
The 3rd set will go on a first come first go basis based upon who's check clears first.
At this point, all the hard work has been done and all the ducks are lined up so I can reproduce these kits with a few days turnaround. This is possible because all the materials are readily available from my local distributor and all the templates and jigs are already made and have been proven.
Oh... I still have to cut out the little pieces that go on the ends of the title strip holders as well as the pieces that go between the fluted glasses and top and front side of the Brown Hockey sticks. This process should go pretty quickly as I purchased a heavy duty Guillotine cutter specifically for these pieces.
So to answer your question, If you send me the $250.00 plus the boxing and shipping fees from 07456 to your house, even if I dont have a kit made when I receive the money, by the time the check clears I should have a kit ready for shipping.
