Something came up in my personal life I had not anticipated, and it has taken it's toll on me, physically and emotionally; add to that preparation for Chicago, as well as working at night on this project, and you can understand I am pressed to my limits... I imagine it will be another 3 weeks, after I am back from Chicago.. the bits are all turned, I have milling to do, then off to heat treat, and then the final grinding... that's where I am... I'm sorry for the delay, I know you are all anxious to get these in your hands. Believe me, I'm doing the best I can, and I won't let you down... I beg your grace...

Best,
Brad
Sorry to hear about the difficult time.

Grace, good man.

See you next week.

Having become accustomed to using hammer, sharks teeth and petrified toenails, the wait is no big deal. I've been able to be quite adept with these tools.

See ya in Chicago!

Whose toenails are you petrifying, Bruce? Todd's are far too dainty, I imagine, to hold up to the process, and yours, being so old, would likely turn to dust. Are you importing them from Germany? Wallenstein, perhaps?

Sorry to hear it Brad, I hope you are doing better and are able to manage. Was just checking in, as others noted, no worries.

I don't suppose there is any way to get in on this run this late is there?

Thanks,

Nope!! I'll have to pencil-whip out a price for individual sets...but they will necessarily be more than the price of a set in a big run.... you are not the only one asking though, so maybe another run is possible.....

That's too bad! Is the individual set price a wallet burner?

Hurry up with the spoon bits, you ignorant liberal ignoramus.
I have 23 pipes all shaped and ready to drill.
I sincerely hope these are better executed than the pipes you make!
