It's worked out. I paid for our order last night, so it should be done in 10-15 days per the invoice.
The problem was we sold around 90, and the minimum order was for 250. I had the money saved up, but when they added the extra price per barrel it threw things way out of wack. It's cleared up now though.

If we order other things with the grooves, will they be shipped aepperately? Or will the order as a whole get put on hold until the grooves are ready?

I've been holding orders that have GB & regular items. If you're willing to pay the two shipping charges, it's easier to place to separate orders. This also keeps the order from being forgotten, because if i partially fill an order, Paypal marks it as "shipped", and it will get passed by when I go to ship all the grooves.

yeah did you get my PM about the 2 different Current drivers instead of 2 of the same?

Yay! I am all too excited about this!

While all this attention is back to this thread, how is everyone going to mount their drivers? I don't see a pill, so I am assuming a blank board? What is the plastic sleeve in the photo for?

The plastic sleeve is a spacer that goes into the tailcap.

I ended up placing an order for them later on after figuring out they were a custom size, and I sure didn't want to make them all myself.

Most people normally mount their drivers attached directly o the diode and standing up with a spring.

I want to drive dual benboosts in one, which require both negative and positive input (cannot do case negative directly to the diode)
So i'll have to figure that out when they get here and i can tinker with it.

I think people normally use rectangle shaped boards soldiered directly to the diode and a spring for the battery connection.

Matt, out of curiosity, why is it you cannot "do case negative directly to the diode"?

I know for sure that I am going to use an Osram in one of mine. This is a new diode for me and I'm not sure how I will go about mounting a small X-Boost mini V7 to it. That tube before the battery stop sure looks long in the video...
