Hennie Engelbrecht Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Argggggg Frustration Jeff of Craters and Freighters must be pulling out his hair. At least I cannot as I am slightly detremented in that department. Canopy from Todd is about 300 miles from Boise. The 3 inch tape is only shipping on USA wednesday. Let me tell you about Todd Silver. I called him earlier to ascertain the tracking number. I reached him on his mobile. He took a couple of minutes to identify me and then he went into another gear. as a matter of fact he let me know that he packed a second canopy into the crate for me as it was "just in his way and not perfect. Use it for experimentation he says..." Man, this is good! More feedback later hennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverquit Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 No need to wait Hennie. Grab some local aluminum and start making parts in between layup and foam times. That should keep you from pacing grooves in your carpet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge 513 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I highly recommend Todd Silver and his canopies. My lightly tinted canopy was just the tint as he described it. [it looks way darker when in a building]. He is spot on with shipping reliably. His prices are very very reasonable and wants Cozy people's business. My suggestion is everybody get theirs from Todd.

Edge 513 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Yea they are. Maybe I'll put up a separate post out of Hennies thread. Quote Self confessed Wingnut.

That should keep you from pacing grooves in your carpet. I would, but if you see what's included I do not think/know whats not there. In the meantime I am racing to get my CNC project complete and then help my son to finish his go cart project. Hennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hennie Engelbrecht Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Yea they are. Maybe I'll put up a separate post out of Hennies thread. Not to worry. Good feedback on quality vendors and the application of that vendor's product is applicable Hennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
