    @vcwatkins Generous offer but You certainly cannot be held accountable for the delay in production. No issue's waiting here as I'm still looking for SDA's that can use it. All good.

    50% longer production time, sigh. Since this is a dramatically different deal than what group members were buying into, I will buy out any members who are not willing to wait until mid-June. Please PM me if you want out.

    So sorry about this guys,

    Craig

    No worries Craig! I was just thinking about em the other day. I know you got it handled.

    Incident at the factory? Interesting. Wonder if there was smoke? Maybe a monoprice amp was involved? :smile:

    No, it crushed the fingers, I feel bad for the guy, he has been running the machine for over a year, when you watch the video it was just him not watching where his fingers were at..

    I worked construction one summer when I was like 19. Old carpenter dude cut off 2 fingers with his circular saw not paying attention. We called him 3 finger Oak.

    "I worked construction one summer when I was like 19. Old carpenter dude cut off 2 fingers with his circular saw not paying attention. We called him 3 finger Oak."

    Working in Arizona several years ago and had a tradesman of 'Spanish' descent cutting big 24" square tile and he evidently got distracted and lopped off a thumb & forefinger. Thereafter known as 'Three Fingers Tequila". He was pretty good natured about the nickname but man that would bite big time!

    I've been lucky all these years working around saws. Not so much with my power nailer. Hit a knot and had a 16 penny nail make a right turn into my thumb. broke the bone and made it useless for months.

    Amateurs... when I want to mess up my fingers, I chose the fan blades of an F/A-18... almost lost the tips of 4 of them at the joints.
