Well,....I figure I should give an update, as well as vent a little...
I contacted the metal supplier a couple of weeks ago and told her I was ready for her to ship the 7068 material to me. She told me they had it in the warehouse, and it should ship immediately. Awesome, right?
Well, that's not the way it worked out...
I started gettin' antsy, so I called to find out what the holdup was. Turns out, she never pushed the order through. I looked and sure enough,...my card hadn't been charged. I raised a little hell, and got them to charge me for the material and promise to ship it out asap.
Yesterday, I call to try and get a tracking number. My contact didn't answer, so I left a voicemail. I still hadn't heard anything towards the end of the day today, so I called again. Turns out, she no longer works there...
Long story short, she charged my card alright, but still hadn't bothered to send the request to the warehouse to ship it out...
What the actual

? Why can't people just do their job???
As hard as I try to do my job correctly, with a sense of urgency, it boggles my mind how people can just blow theirs off, with no sense of shame or embarrassment???
Anyhow,....I spoke to a nice lady who assured me that it would be on the way in the next day or two... They were in the process of trying to figure out just how much stuff the other girl had screwed up before she left...
Some peoples kids.....
There,....I feel a little better now.
Sorry for the delays on the new mods. Once the material finally gets here, the machine shop still has to do their thing, so it's still gonna be a while yet... I do still have Classic mods in 6061, 7068, 316 stainless, and titanium, if anyone's ready...
