lloyd,
Just a few thoughts!
What plan/method is in place to help those financially unable to order now but may have some spare wonga at a later date? Not viable I would think to re-setup the tooling for one or two off's?
Have any of the tier 1 suppliers taken any stock?
regards,
Kev

Re: panel update
hi ya kev,
sorry boyo, i told you in the pm i sent you that i was going to make a posting regarding your questions, totally forgot, lifes manic at the mo, thats my excuse anyway, and im sticking to it !
no one has taken stock of any panels, simply because chris witor is passing any of his clients on to me as he is up to his neck in other remanufactured items, and i didnt know of any other stockists that would be interested apart from maybe the " largest " supplier , and i wont deal with them, for reasons many have posted about !!! and i thought with the orders i have taken, the markets thirst had been quenched for a while.
as with ALL the panels i will be / am doing, the way forward is to simply contact me regarding what ever panel you want, i will add you all to that panel list, and when req numbers are reached, i will place an order.
until i claw back some / most of the tooling costs for whatever panel, unfortunatly this is the only way to do it, as for now, keeping on the shelf stock is another outlay for me of thousands of pounds, BUT in the not to distant future, i will take stock once the bite of the tooling costs is soaked up a bit.
so for those wanting panels, just gimme a shout, but please bear in mind, all the manufacturers i am using, have a lead time of at least THREE months from placement of order.
for any of you that are in need of sills that havent placed an order, if you contact me within the next TWO / THREE days, i could squeeze your order in.
many thanks for your thoughts kev, please keep them comming, YOU CAN PLEASE SOME OF THE PEOPLE SOME OF THE TIME, BUT YOU CANT PLEASE ALL OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME, but im trying my best
ONWARD AND UPWARD

Hi Lloyd
How are things going with the wings now ? Fingers crossed the sills are still going to be ready soon as the manufacturers have promised.
Posts about panels have gone a bit quiet of late !
