Availability update + the coming of the tanks...

k guys, we have had to do some serious thinking here. We had no intention of having another pre order, but demand has dictated otherwise, and we kinda have no choice... that, coupled with the F5 BS when we actually do release some, it's just not working... I really don't want people to have to do that... it's sucks. At the same time, there are a few hundred BB owners in the world now with a craving for tanks... that's alot of tanks,,, ALOT of tanks... At the same time i have this new machine that needs tooling, jigs and a serious amount of coding to get up and kicking ....... so what "I" need, is time to work on her and get our output up.

so here is what we are going to do. I am going to pull my guys off BB prep and buffing and such this coming week, and put them and Dev entirely on tanks. tanks, tanks, tanks.....

we are going to open another pre order soon (maybe tomorrow maybe next day..working on details now), with a ship date starting in 6 weeks.

with the Dev and the guys on nothing but tanks, I am left free to write the code, build jigs, and set up the tooling for the new machine... It also will free me up a bit to get thinking on the rebuild'able.

While on the pre order are waiting, I will post updates here weekly just like last time (as soon as there is physical stuff to show). Demand has dictated we do this, but please know that as I work to increase our output by a ton, there will be no effect on quality, if anything, i only shoot to get better. All the pictures we post here with the BB next to another fine tool is a statement and compliment to its build... it is an honor, i take it as such, and i intend to keep it that way.

Your the man, very thought out and admirable plans, I know this will work in the end to make everyone happy if they execute patience. Lets hope that's the case and everything goes as well as we have all seen it go thus far!! Thanks for all you do Doug:)

ooohhh bout time 2423kids someone done a lady pic. I think they are very stilish even for us. Not just a man thing. But hey guys love all the pics with the knifes too. I am already dreaming of how I will put up my pics when one finally finds a home here. Know the 1st one will have to be with Keywii the gorgous colors in him will surely make the BB stand out. Will just have to keep him away from the tip. No nic for birdy. He loves bright shiney things. Way to go DD in trying to satisfie everyones wants for extra tanks. This really tells me more how dedicated you are, and I love to see people take care in their work so many don't now adays.

Why do I love hanging out here?

Let me count the ways...

nope, can't count that high!!!

6347, great pic! Thanks for making Saturday all girley.

DD of BB, your plans sound perfect to me. And it also sounds like inlays and customs and all that jazz might be a tad off into the future. That's ok. We'll wait for ya. :D
Now go learn some code, or press some buttons and just see what happens. That's what I'd do.

(but then again, replacing a drip tip O ring is major modding for me.)

Yay! Tanks!!!! Can wait to get some. I have been eagerly wanting to switch flavors and it would be awesome and so much easier to do it with another tank. Not to mention if I did not have a back up and something happen to the one I have I would be SOL. :(. So YAY again for tanks!

Doug will you announce here when tanks are a able for purchase or will we need to keep checking the website?

Thanks again and sounds like you have your work cut out for you in the days ahead. :D

thanks guys, i think this will work, and i get to re-fire up the billet birth show every weekend and that was fun. Sorry 2423, not gonna happen this round, I was hoping to do the tinkering with wood last week but i kinda got shot down, and by the time i was up again it was a mad dash to get everything back in order. With this pre sale/ order/ whatever , it is to give us the time we need to meet the demand (or come close). Once i have things stabilized, then i get to have a field day with different plates/buttons/inlays/magic/ect... I will bring some awesome new stuff to the table in time, but this plan of attack is hopefully going to get us ahead of the game...

Thanks for sharing your plans DD. I have to applaud you and your people for the dedication you have to us and your product. Can't wait for the tanks! Should have my Diver in next week!

Really hope that diver works out for the BB tank. I don't think we ever got a concrete yes or no there. keep us posted for sure!!!
