CLOSED - COLLECTING $ Dorcy Jnr GB - $15.00 Shipped- 07/12/09

[triggerjerk]

I really have no preference. As a first time builder I think that the extra room in the original might be an advantage, but I'll work with whatever I get.

And no hurry on any of that, either. I got lots of new toys to play with at Christmas.:san:

As far as the 11 "classic" DJR's, are they going to be offered at the GB price? I don't mind the new look, but I'd also like to buy a classic if they are available.

I have not been part of the negociations about these. Tommi is the point man there.

I understand. I was hoping he'd see this, but I haven't seen him post on here lately :thinking:

 

[mattmagic100]

ill most likely be trading my current heatsink for the original dorcy heatsink in this GB since i bought the original dorcy at target. and i will also be buying the one for the different model we received. but hopefully Dark gets those heatsinks into us soon so we can put his masterpiece into use.

 

[Byrnz93]

I don't mind getting the new style Dorcy.

Just an update for everyone. (long-winded post)

I am back in town now. I have to go back to work tommorow, yuk!

I have been playing with the new design a little here at my home-bench. It may not be as easy as I thought when last I posted, the egg-nog wore-off , lol. The groove is for the O-ring is angled a little which makes it harder to gain purchase on the rubber, as opposed to a sharp-edge. I still think it will work out, but I need to make some proto-types at the shop tommorow night after work, I will post the results as soon as I have something.

I have not heard anything from Tom about the replacments, I will be focusing on a solution for the existing "new-design" heatsinks. I hope Tom's health is better, best wishes to you man!


Disclaimer: The following is an update about Dark Horse Custom and personal-crap about me in general, sorry.

As many of you already know, my brother and I have spent the last-year trying to get a machine/Fab shop of our own off the ground, (G2-Industries Inc.), while still working full-time. It has been a rough-year to say the least, thanks to everyone for your support. We have decided to disolve G2 and shut it down as a profesional-project. This hopefully will not affect my "production heatsinks" as I have them made by CNC in another shop, but short-run and custom-stuff will be on hold soon, at least for a while. I plan to get everything set-up in my garage again, (the anodizing is already there), I am just not sure when. I will make sure to get these finished for everyone prior to tearing down the lathe and mill. These may the last DH-custom heatsinks for a while. The good new about this is that I can soon focus back on the laser-related stuff, which I love. Good times ahead!

In addition to the machine-shop issue I am dealing with above, my Mother is very sick and I will be spending as much time with her as I can, probably every second-weekend. I am not trying to share all of my woes with you guys and bring you down, but I thought it may be best to let you know where I am. In December I lost 2 family members, I hope 2010 is better! Thanks to everyone for your support and being so patient.

Adaptation is the secret to survival. My thoughts are with you.

[rpaloalto]

Thanks dark-horse
Don't worry about it. You take care of what you need to. Even if you don't find a economical solution or the time. These will still make Ok, flashlights.
Best wishes to you dark_Horse.

 

[mattmagic100]

Ya take your time Dark. Go ahead and handle what you need to handle.
We'll support and understand all that you need to do. =]
Take care and i hope your mom feels better =]

No more true words have ever been spoken, everything will work out fine, just a little challenging right now.

Thanks everyone, it really does mean a lot to me.

I should have something nice to post in the next couple of days.
