    Well now I'm confused about what you're confused about. You were in the first block of 15. Graeme was telling blind cowboy that he was in a later block of 15 that they were waiting to close out before notifying the folks in that block.

    Yup.

    Apologies for any confusion here. You are number 15 in the build queue based on the time paid. We had some local orders that paid in full that we are building now.

    Additionally, we decided to move to a larger shop to accommodate the volume of orders so that we could get the bulk of them out the door sooner. That move, coupled with the steel tariff delay did set us back a few weeks in the current timeline, but we plan to be caught up to what was published in the email by mid to late April.

    OK. So if I am #15, when might my unit be built? The original schedule was this week.

    Got it, thank you.

    The Smoky Mountain Overland Rally is April 27-29 so it will be great if it gets here in time for that!

    The gap is actually slightly bigger. That photo doesn't have the seals in. The panels seal to the tube not to each other and were designed to have a gap at the corners. So with the seals the gap is even but it doesn't go away. Graeme is shooting a walk around video now.
