prototypin'

so, ever wish you could get a stainless chainring for those XTR cranks you cut the outer ears off of?

most recent latest latest.

Got blanks cut for all sizes now,
workshop tonight, to the post office
Saturday morn to ship any orders
that I rec'd thru Thursday (yesterday).

latest latest

18's are also now cut. I'm only running about a dozen of each size this time 'round, unless I see interest really pick back up, then I'll stockpile more. Will have 19's and 20's cut by Friday, if not before, so I should have packages into the mail on Saturday. And if not then, then as soon as I can get back to the post office, my work hours change next week, so I'm going thru a bit of a reshuffle right now....(like I said, major shitshow.)

the latest

real qwik before I head to the ski hill....

just cut a handful of 16's along with a few 17's,
then the cut quality started to go to shit.
So, looks like I need to clean some laser optics.

Hope to cut a few of the other sizes in the morning
before tearing into the machine, so I do plan to be
able to ship any current backorders on Friday.

going to the show!

interesting happenings over the last week or so. opportunity has knocked in the form of a very gracious hookup with Chris Igleheart, master craftsman of the bicycle art, (thanks Andy!) . so, that means there'll be a small sample of cogs on display/for sale out in Portland at the North American Handmade Bicycle Show, and get this.......business cards. who'd a thunk?

in other related happenings, I figure that after the NAHBS, I will be 100% out of stock unless some come back. I'm actually short one or two before before the show came up, I'll shoot out emails once I know who's affected. I'm going to be cutting more blanks over the next week or so, need to look at schedules and piggyback onto the machine, there is a definite window. I expect no more than a two week delay before I'm sending out cogs again, didn't figure on needing more blanks so quick. And really didn't expect the whole NAHBS to happen.....could get interesting.

thanks everybody, hope ya'll are having fun!
