    @Toolfan66
    Will the rings be on the same thread or a separate one?

    @Toolfan66. Larry, do I need to PM you to order a case? I thought a separate case ordering thread would be started. Thanks, T.

    There will be another thread, as soon as I get everything together I will post one.. I made plenty..

    Thanks Larry! Will look forward to your cases.

    Possibly rings as well??? Oh! My.

    I just joined the forum and I am getting the distinct impression I now should go out and get the 2nd mortgage on my house...... :wink:

    Between the Transformer/s, cases, VR3 Terminal plates and possibly rings.
    I haven't even looked under the hood at cap upgrades or driver upgrades. Is this a forum or are some of you members of a Polk 12 step program?? LOL!

    Hi I'm Kevin and I don't have a problem yet but I think I am working my way too one.... :smiley:

    This thread has had a life of its own. Yesterday, I had to increase my data plan on my iPhone. Lots of ways to lighten the wallet.

    There will be no updates. One day, they'll start showing up in people's mailboxes. The last two orders did arrive sooner than 12 weeks, but not this quick. Sit tight.

    Larry stated he will start a separate thread when he is ready to sell the rings and cases.
