ACMESkydiver 0 #1 January 30, 2008 ...me too. I can't apologize enough. Here's a copy of an email I sent out to Johann and Karl for SA: QuoteAn update, gentlemen: I just got off of the phone with Chris at Twintec metal shop and he said that he has 36 finished for the special order ('BEEZY -Spirit in the sky' for Beezy Shaw's wife, don't know if either of you were acquainted with Beezy) but he hasn't completed the 100 pins for Tonto yet. I'm going down today to pay for and pick up the 36 for Mrs. Shaw and her family and get them off to her. He said that he anticipates the other 100 done by Friday. I can't apologize enough; this is just so unprofessional. I don't even know what I'm going to do for the next 66 for Lee. I told Chris that they'd be coming, he just won't give me a time frame. If I had a single viable alternative, I'd take it...at this point there is no other company willing to take this small amount and size piece work for this type of marking. The only other alternative, which I seriously considered, would be to buy the machinery equipment and do the work myself. I priced out the equipment, and that's not feasible, either... I am working on it. I wish there was something more I could do to move things along. I feel like I'm letting so many people down by not getting these pieces done and out...I know that the grieving process is difficult enough for everyone without these irritating hang ups. Take care both of you, I will be in touch. Please pass the word along that NOBODY has been forgotten! Jaye P This goes for all. Orders are severely backed up. Between the holidays, the flooding, and illness in the shop (owner couldn't come in and work), these orders are way WAY behind schedule. I am very sorry...please don't anyone think I haven't been bugging the hell out of the machine shop. I've been on the phone constantly for weeks...they rarely answer the phone, the voice mail is always full, and when I can reach them, it's the same tune...'Sorry, we're still behind'. If you still haven't paid for a pin for Lee, please send that over. To date I have only received payment for half of the pins that were ordered...seems silly now with all of this back log, but I am going to be ordering the raw pins from Florida as soon as these last two projects are complete and closed out. I don't want to order 70 if there are only 35 that will be paid for... If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or send me an email to my email addy listed in my profile. I am very happy to answer any queries as to 'where the hell is my stuff, Jaye?!' I can't send a message to multiple users from DZ.com's email (spam settings won't allow it). Take care. They will be done. I am the squeakiest wheel they have.~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madhatter 0 #6 January 31, 2008 We're a patient nation. Have a look at this article in the NY Times & you'll see we would also be late Electricity is such a problem, they've even had to switch off the light at the end of the tunnel We all realize the effort you're going to to facilitate these pins. Relax & wait it out... A VERY MERRY UNBIRTHDAY TO YOU!!! D.S # 125 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Relax & wait it out... Wow! What a mess! And I was frustrated over our 3-4 power outages per day for the past 4 days here in my lil' town! February 12th we'll be out from 9am-4pm we're told...grrr.... -but again, I shouldn't gripe. It could be a whole lot worse. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
