    Great news, does that mean shipping might start sooner then expected too?

    Not necessarily. Will take a couple weeks to get all the plate steel run and formed on the press brake and then another week to finish bending all the hoops and cutting all the square tube. Then takes about 90 minutes per set to weld. Each set takes about 2.5-3.0 hours from start to finish. That is a lot of labor at 50 sets, 150 hours just on sliders. Plus another 30 minutes per set to build the pallet, box the hardware, band the sliders down and call the truck in.

    Have a lot of other orders and behind the scenes stuff to do on a daily basis too.

    Hopefully this gives you all a better understanding how much work goes into building a set. I can only build 2 sets a day from nothing to ready to ship.

    Mobtown did say pretty far back in the thread they may take more than 50 if a lot of interest is there since it filled so fast. It was only said once, and it was a thought, I haven't saw anything else about more than 50 posted.
