      ...well they look pretty close to completion in that shot. I notice the Boards, HES's and Selenoids are mounted. Looks like the ACE boards are not yet in and the final leg from then to the batteries is not there by evidence of the dangling wires. If that was in we would be looking at 20 minutes a piece to finish em each up and even that wouldn't take too long. But I do not know if those pictures were snapped on Friday when they were posted or not. They are close though. I would think at least some of them may ship on Monday though. And it shouldn't take too long to finish them all up. But we do not know what day that picture was taken so they may be further along than that. It would be easier to take a picture of all the components like that at that stage than to try and get all the markers together for a group shot. Last I heard they expected to ship on Monday but that may not be all of them ship monday and that was (as always) subject to change. I do know I do not want one rushed! If it takes another day then take it and do it right! And I am sure that is what they will do.

      Now here is exactly how Tom phrased it: Xmags shipping next week the 10th.

      So you could take that one of two ways... Shipping next week ON the 10th or Shipping next week OF the 10th. There is an action verb or even a comma missing in the statement. Most likely by clever design? That Devil is taunting us isn't he? Toying with our emotions?

        I know, I am just anxious for the big Dallas AO meet this coming weekend. I assume I'll get the X-Mag eventually.

              You're right. I am backing away from the edge and trying to stay positive. I just cannot think of all those fellow AOers standing around and not having my X-Mag to brag about. An attitude that may be considered by some (read, "all") as Pride.

                On the right side of the first picture, what is the line of parts against the cinder-block wall?

                  Not sure. I tried blowing it up and focusing on it but cannot make it out. It looks like one long thing though when you try and zoom in on it.

                    unknown parts

                    I think they are the triggers...I may br wrong. Just a guess.

                      By Golly you may be right. OK look at them this way. Triggers lined up on both sides of some kind of a rack to hold em. Alternating side to side facing each other. But on that darker cylinder of a rack they are most likely holding themselves on by the trigger magnet or something. I believe that is what they are. Look at it carefully and you can imagine and make it out...

                          the little things in front of the triggers (im certain thats what they are) are the trigger magnets, most likely.

                            Pretty sad that we all spend so much time trying to identfy the things in the background while we wait....

                            What style of mortar strike is that on them Blocks?

                              I noticed they are all CnC? Are they making the non-CnC? I actually like the regular, non CnC better../shrug

                                No ones ordering any non c&c that I know of. It's all what people have ordered is why you see what you see. You seen a non C&C up close? You wouldn't like it so much if you had. I betcha.
