SHAMUS'WAGON Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Hey man I just learned a little bit about a method called "VACUUM FORMING". I thought it would be a good method for you to make more of these quicker and cheaper. Or I could get in touch with you after my move to WA, and we can arrange something for me to make them for you.

the510keeper Posted April 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Cool stay in touch. Dave the Carbon man is going to make a mold from the next one i finish. Hoping to drive the labor cost down. Link to comment
the510keeper Posted November 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Taking orders or just general interest. I'm paying a guy to make the mold to make these from any type of carbon, or just fiberglass. The first one will be glass and the next carbon, I will post pic once the 1st one is done Prices are as follows, glass $160 and carbon $180 Link to comment

freekwonder Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 I would definitely buy one in C/F, Don't have the cash at the moment, but knowing these will go on sale I won't buy anything else and save my cash. Link to comment

DREWSDIME Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Interested in carbon fiber one. Link to comment
gorillabear Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Interested for sure but wish they were cheaper. Any price break if you can order a bunch at once? Link to comment
the510keeper Posted November 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Working on the price thing. I just want them to not be made in a hurry. The cheaper this guy makes them the crappy they might come out. I will keep you all posted. I think it would be cool to have one made from a sheet of copper. Link to comment
the510keeper Posted December 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 I Have one of these done, it's like all the others we have made black low sheen, made from the factory part. Pic soon $200 OBO. Still don't know when the fiber glass or carbon ones will be ready. Link to comment
72goon Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 that would be sic in my wagon but like everyody else im broke!!!one day perhaps Link to comment
the510keeper Posted February 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 3 months in the making and we have 1 fiberglass one done. Not perfect but some of us have more time then money, so I'm putting it up for sale as is. You will need to finish light imperfections and painting. Note complete part made of fiberglass, almost perfect match to the part I have been making, very lightweight. $130 OBO Shipped, Or trade for some thing cool. Link to comment
