i have tried to get in contact a few times here recently. I'll update as soon as i know. They SHOULD be in production now. last i heard the prototype was almost perfect and then it would be off to be replicated. I'll try to have an update for you guys on Wednesday night when I'll be back to a computer instead of my phone. Thanks

Here is what Romas said today:
He went on vacation, vehicle broke down and had to deal with getting it towed. Ruta is pregnant. And upon arriving home, found out his Grandfather died. So things have been stopped and will resume soon. "next week or so - i will have pictures of the pods"

There ya go
Sorry to hear about your grandfather Romas frown.gif
Congrats to you and Ruta smile.gif

I have been texting, calling, and emailing non-stop. I finally got a reply and he says he will have the situation for me tomorrow. I'll let u know then
Here is what I got today:
that prototypes that i made - on the final coat - i used different Topcoat - and it reacted with the Gelcoat in the molding process - this means - prototipes are STUCK in the mold - and while the guys who produce these - where trying to remove them out - but where not too carefull - so in the end - prototipes = broken / cracked atleast in 4-5 places, mold= broken / cracked.
i will get pics of HOW everything looks now, how they prototypes look
im pissed my self - cuz i blew like 6full days in creating prototipes - and now i have nothing my self!
i COULD make new molds in a 2 weeks... i guess.


That was a direct copy/paste. So again, the pods/molds were cracked due to using a different topcoat. You guys have two options.
1) I can start to try to come back up with all the money and refund everyone and the project will stop
2) you guys can wait even longer to get it done

I want an executive decision by Monday. It's all or nothing though, I wont have 5 people back out because then I will be investing my money into something I can't steal. Let me know
Dustin, I'll go with the majority. I'm working on another project at the moment so I don't mind waiting a bit longer. Thanks for following up!

I gave everyone the option to cancel the gb when stuff went down. NO ONE said they wanted to cancel, so I told him to re-do them instead of a refund. I am REALLY sorry about the wait and everything, but I can't control it. You're in this GB fully. As I stated everything was non-refundable when it started. Everyone knew it could take a while. I'm not in charge or producing them. I was just trying to help YOU ALL out. I get no benefit from this and it certainly wasn't worth the headache it's caused me. I would appreciate some lee-way here from everyone
Listen Just refund me the money back ASAP its been to long when you told us they will be ready in 2 weeks I said ill wait abit more but now this is getting ridiculous Please refund me in full ASAP

PS I paid for both gauge pods in full!!!!

Thanks ALAN
Alan, Can you hold out for abit longer mate?
We are all in the same boat.
Dustin was a good man to even start this. After abit of persuading.
I know he said 2 weeks and all,
but its out of his control. I dont blame Romas either as he had a few dramas in his life
But I know he would pull through.

Lets just wait and hear from Romas.
I'm sure Dustin is doin all he can.
Give him a break smile.gif
