Ahoy, ahoy and AHOY!
I'm still alive and kicking but I have a lot going on at the moment.
I'm trying to do machine maintenance and upgrades including a full tear-down of the cnc machine as it is having problems due to age. I'm also trying to do paperwork that I've been putting off for ages including a couple of innovations for e-cigs that I want to try to patent before they are released. One of them is completely awesome but I though of it years ago and never did anything about it so at least I am going to try to get the patent in before it's too late.
I'm also looking into a business model change and other stuff that has been neglected for far too long. Lot's of stuff for one tired old man to get done, but I'm trying!
Have a great weekend all, you know where I'll be as usual......
Arrrrrr

Hang in there Cappy! I know you'll get it done and I'm sure all will work out! Looking for some really awesome things in the next few months!!
I can't imagine that you could top what you make now but I await it in great anticipation!! Rest up Capt' your crew will be here taking care of the ship till your ready for us to hoist the sails!!!!
ARRRRRR
Oh no, it will be work as usual, I will just be doing other stuff as well, like paperwork.
I finished overhauling the cnc machine a bit ago, it's working like a top again. I switched to a teflon based lubricant instead of the silicone based and hopefully I will have a much smaller problem of fine dust in the drive systems!
Tomorrow I start assembling more of the boxes for next batch, some of the boxes will be multiple wood types again. I have most of the wood picked out, just have to size it and get it ready. Next batch 3 months or less I hope, time will tell, arrr

Ahoy, happy Saturday! Got a nose fulla dust but made some real headway with the mod bodies today.
One of them is getting a layer of wood in both axis's, what a pain! The wood layer has glue on both sides and as usual wants to slip and slide all over the place.
Hope it turns out well, har!
Anyway, have a great weekend all, arr

Ahoy!
Hope everyone survived the Monday without too much bloodletting....
I was grabbing stuff off me shelves this morning and discovered three boxes ready to ship that I failed to send out last Thursday! Well, they're off now, but still, I think I need some adult supervision anymore
I have most of the mod bodies cut and spent some time deciding what panel wood is going with what body wood. By the time I had done that and placed each model in their own box I was kinda shocked at how many I had done. If I do them all, it will be the biggest batch I have ever done!
I'm not sure that is gonna happen as according to me ships ledger I will run outta cash well before the batch is done, so I will probably do a split batch at some point and push the 3.7v models ahead again then finish the rest after.
Check this out....
Cruisers x 12
Marauders x 3
Cutlass30's x 12
Destroyer30's x 4
Cutlass30's (26650) x 1
Destroyer30 (26650) x 2
I am also making a couple prototypes this batch for a new version of an old model.
Anyhow, thats whats looming on the horizon. Looks like it's gonna be all hands on deck here for a while. Now, if I could just get a few damn days without thunderstorms I would be a happy cappy, har!
Have a great week, arrr

Well, I consider the new Cutlass to be that upgrade. The only thing not covered anymore is a smaller mod, or the smallest I can manage anyway using the 14500 battery. I would kinda like to have one to shove in a pocket when I have to dash out the door or have it as a backup mod. It won't be a lot smaller than a Cruiser, but small enough to fit in a pocket. Maybe around 1 3/4 x 3 1/4" or so. Not a real big deal as new models go, kind of a updated Scalleywag I suppose. I would use a 3ml bottle for a feed system.
Well, hopefully I will have some cruisers done in under 2 months and the rest before x-mas?
