      Thanks for the update.

      Are you able to assemble the boards yourself?
      Is the cost to assemble the boards for parts, or the labor to have someone else do it?

        Can I assemble the boards myself?
        Yes

        Will I?
        No

        Reason??
        The boards are not very complex but require a bit more skill than what I have acquired thus far.
        I have tried to do some sample boards myself and have made a 60% success rate with the resistors. Keep in mind thats JUST the resistors! Some of the package sizes are 403-402,.. which is the smallest in hand tools you can dare to go.

        Without a machine,... the parts will fry from electro-static charge the second you look at them.

        Things I have done myself:
        Assemble the wire harnesses for the components like solenoids, HES, power cables,....

        I paid the board company the retainer to print the boards. With the money vested toward the assembly from you guys,.. they are going to warranty the boards as they are assembled.

        Hence,... not worth your money to have me TRY to assemble your board.....

        Keep in mind this is YOUR money we are talking about here,.... not mine.

        Not worth the gamble

              My warranty (your warranty) is resting with the printer of the boards,.... hence,.. they need to assemble to CARRY OVER the warranty.

              Now,... with that said,.. we COULD have any one assemble the boards,..

              BUUUUUUUT,.... YOU VOID YOUR WARRANTY with me,.......

              See how that plays out??/

              In my opinion,.... not worth the cost of the wait,...... I would PREFER the warranty

                  Or will this turn into another order that never was...

                  It will turn into a "when the pre-order guys finish up payment,.. we can finish up shiping"


                  I am uploading some more current video to offer some re-assurance of where we are at,....

                    I want nothing more than to get rid of these parts from my house!!!

                    I want to move on to something new and different,....

                    HOWEVER,... I am committed to finish this project in a manor that reflects greatly upon myself, my company, and the AO/BEO community.

                    AGAIN... if you want to stop by my house and tour the shop,... please feel free to contact me!!!!!!

                            alright people use some of the x-mas money and throw it down and pay what you owe, or throw down the cash to pay outright to get one of these great boards.
