He emailed me last week. His quote below.

I haven't forgotten about you. Getting some of the suppliers to get back to me is difficult.
We need to co-ordinate with the metal suppliers, the CNC machinists, media blasters, electro polisher and finally the metal anodizer in order to get this product made. I almost have the numbers ready.

Regards,
Charles

I reached out to him before about these, the bright anodizing is the hardest part.
I am in for at least 2 sets, or more if needed.

@Flea7 you think it’ll be easier to get this done if we request them to be painted black instead of anodizing the aluminum? Assuming others are on board with that of course

I'm sure they're more difficult to make than it looks.

Let get the pricing with the number of interest we have and go from there. I can ask once we get the initial pricing.

unfortunately I’m only interested in the “stock” look. There are some great bright anodizers in the us, but it’s deff not like regular anodizing.

but if he needs to make 25 sets to make his % needed to motivate doing the project we’re there.
