No sorry, yet mate. I sent another e-mail yesterday asking about the mould and if we have to make a new one but he hasn't got back to me yet. As soon as I know anything I'll post it up here. :)

Yeah they will be available after the GB but will cost a bit more as we got a discount for ordering lots at once in the GB.

Just a little update while I'm here.. They are making a new mould out of a different material as the last one reacted with the different resin we had to use. I'll keep this updated, sorry for the delay again.

Still waitin for news on these guys, sorry again for the delay. As soon as I get back I'll go round to see whats happening. Just to reassure people, I havent handed any money over for labour yet, just paid for the materials so far.

I'll be back on Monday mate. I need to get the CF ones sorted before the CK ones though, so they may be a while off yet.

No, it was ruined because the release wax reacted with it and the mould, ruining both of them. It should have been re-done by now but the bloke hasn't e-mailed me back so I have no more information yet. I'll be back on Monday so will go and see him to see whats going on. :)

Just had some more news about the panels..

The guy I was getting to make them says he's not comfortable making them as he can't match the finish of the GD item. This is a shame but I'm glad he was honest and not tried to give me a poor product as I would not have paid for them if they were not perfect. He is putting me in touch with a local CF specialist though who will continue making them for us. Cost will not be affected but they will be a few weeks yet. Really sorry about the delay guys, its frustrating me too! :(

Nothing much unfortunately. We are awaiting delivery of a different form of resin to make the new mould from. Once this is made then it should start coming along nicely. If all goes well I'll pay for another mould to be made so they can be made twice as fast.

My offer still stands of refunding anyone who doesn't want to wait. I am really about the delay but am doing all I can.

You can mate but I would wait a few weeks first as none have actually been made in CF yet.


TBH it's been a bit of a disaster so far but the last attempt is being made next week at making a good epoxy mould, so hopefully we will finally be able to start making them. If not I'll have to cut my losses and refund everyone as it's gone on too long already! :(

The new mould has finally been made now so we're back on track thankfully. They are firstly going to make a plug (panel that won't be sold), to make a second mould which will be a backup incase anything happens to this one. Panels should start to be made early next week.

:)
