Well guys, its official. Here is the latest email...
Bill,
There were a few technological issues to resolve, but we have the kinks
worked out and we have a cost estimate. Based on a run of 10, we can do
them for $195 each. We would plan on 34mm primary and 37mm secondary unless
you tell us otherwise. Since we do not have a stockpile of Contour LIMs, we
would need to make these in batches. Customers would send in an aeembled
LIM, we would disassemble, bore, and reassemble with custom larger butterfly
plates. It would probably take 2-3 weeks from the time people send in the
old LIM until they receive the bored out models back. It looks like we can
do both vacuum style and mechanical style castings on the same tooling, so
that does not make a difference. We may be able to do them in a batch of 5
if you cannot get 10 people at a time, but the price would be higher.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
Mike
