No, I don't think I've used this one before. I'm sure I would have remembered

Btw, here is a quick pic of part of the next batch, I know its been a couple weeks almost but the DIY kits held me up quite a bit. Most of them will be 5v or VV buccaneer variants.

Whew, end of another busy day, arrrr...



They just got the initial coat of finish, just got done with fine sanding. Next is hardware then a few more coats of finish and out the door!

I know they Could be better, but I'm Way behind, so I just slapped them together from old parts laying around, a few nails I found in the desk and a touch of elmers glue left over from the kids school days.

Yo Ho !

Usually I go with dark colors but I think since I'm gonna be wood burning I am gonna use lighter color wood. If I can decide on wood I can place my order Nd stalk the mail man . Haha maybe I will talk him for fun

 

[VPJUNKIE510]

The dark one in the middle is gonna be perfect and the front right is beautiful . If I had to pick , those two would be the winners

Elmers glue, old nails.... LMAO @ the Cap'n!

Don't rub too hard or the finish might come off ...just sayin...

If you want a DIY kit it would probably be best to order by this weekend. The kits take up too many resources for the small sales they have generated and are going away, I think the small amount of people who wanted one got one.

After this weekend just send me a PM and I can still put one together for you but they won't be on the website anymore.

arrr..

I still want a DIY kit. Get paid tomorrow so hopefully I can drop a order tomorrow afternoon.

Ill give my two cents on the DIY kits. If my two cents aint worth two cents two ya throw em overboard. Make em custom order with a few days wait time but dont stop offering them. The word is just picking up about them and I really think they will sell. ECF is a slow mover. Word will spread and things will go. Sig banners will help spread the word Soon as I get one I will definitely be adding red sky to my sig.

If ya really do remove them Ill rework the sig banners that advertised DIY to something new

 

[FlyingV]

Give the kits a bit longer Cap'n! You have a unique product, give it some time. Those of us buying do talk about our mods, I plan on making everyone on the planet look at mine when It's done!

 

[Capt' Brian]

I would like to be accommodating to everyone, truly I would and many of the suggestions I get sound interesting, but take time and research.

DIY Kits took many days to get ready as I wanted boxes to be ready to ship when ordered, boxes and dozens of end cap sets had to be made, attys soldered and part kits put together. Got all that done finally and they are collecting dust, not good.

Look at it from a standpoint of income. How much do you make per day? Every day I go without a sale is a bit further I sink into the red. I would like to generate a minimum of $500 a week in income to pay bills and eat, but the last couple weeks have been half that, not good.

DIY kits take 75% of the work, but generate say 60% less profit than premades, ouch... and numbers are not making up the difference.

Yarrr... I need to run an efficient ship, so time to rig full sails and get cruising, no more stops for a while.

All aboard, next stop ... booty!

No worries, I will just throw in a VV board and you can send me the other 10 bucks some other day.

Besides trying to make a small living, this is the first time I've ever actively helped in a small way to make better/healthier lives for people, gives me a warm feeling .. I like it !

 

[VPJUNKIE510]

I went with white ash main body and Black cherry for end's I think they will look good together
