AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
so yeah, so we were joking about how i got a fat speeding ticket the other week.... so now i've been in jail for the past 20 hours ... i've lost $1900 in 2 months to this damn county.

I was going to go play PB at Xtreme today, but I had to work.
I really am working on these things when I can, but I just don't get much time off anymore.
On the up side, Goldie got back with me last week and told me what was going on with the boards.
They are coming in a couple of weeks, the PCB's had to be refabbed so everything would work as designed.
I wish you would get my electro-pnumatic Logic mag done before you come up
with something else I will just have to buy.
Ok just how much is the Two Tube Viking going to cost me ?
LOL
I'm working on the first one's frame to rail adapter, trying to make that interface as smooth as possible. I've got the CAD very close to how I want it, but I still need to make the code and actually cut it. I've got the VA mounted, but I have to custom make one of the fasteners, so that still needs to be done. I'm also still pondering how I want to do the eye covers on that Dallara. Very tricky business there.
AND, I'm still waiting on boards.
We shall see if those show up when they are supposed to.
I'm not running away, and you'll also note that I am not taking any more orders either. I'll get these markers delivered before I take any more work (emergencies and the like not withstanding).
If it looks like AGD is going to tank on me, I will get all the parts bought and warehoused to make sure I can deliver these markers, come hell or high water.

Unless I get killed somehow, I'll get them done.
Heehee.
Oh come on Ryan, you know I'm kidding.
You're never online anymore, so it's difficult to joke with you.

Well, that was supposed to be funny.
I've been holding off buying the bodies and such until that marker's number comes up, so the buyer can change their mind up until that point.
I know several of these have changed hands already, and the new owner doesn't always want what the original order asked for. If I'd already had the parts setting here, I'd be screwed and/or their order would be set in stone.
i received my alpha rail today .... amazing piece of work ... thanx a lot ryan it will look great on my next project .... it's just sad that you won't make 'em anymore .... those are the lightest on the market using classic sear ...
keep up on the good work
Thank you Grom, I am very sorry it took so long to get into your hands.
In other news, I spent about five hours last night with my nose to the CAD stone, but happily, I think I have the eye covers and the rail adapter design finished for marker #1.
I'm going to take a fresh look at it tonight and if I don't see any obvious crap-ups I'm going to start on the CNC code for both.
Hopefully over the weekend I can find enough time to knock them out into real metal. It all depends on how long the coding takes me, and what else comes up in the mean time.

But hey, progress is progress.
Yes progress is progress, and seriously updates are wonderful, with you I in no way think you are running away with my money. Unfortunatly even if you get number one done quickly, and the next 3 are a breeze I know that mine will probalby take quite a bit of time too due to the Karta body and making eye covers for that. But seriously updates are great I do appreciate them and can't wait to see number one finished up.
