I understand why you are doing this,
But what if you do another run like High Speed that you did earlier this year?
Most of those came out less than perfect. I don't see why we should be forced to buy something not up to scratch

I am a loyal customer who does buy most of your playfields, so ddon't get cranky

let you in on a secret
CPR tend to rerun plastics and back glasses when they run playfields

Hoping TAF is closer to 6+ months than 4 months

EDIY
Why am I worried , you guys always run late

Why not?
IPB did several runs
CPRs limitation is that this run is finishing what IPD started
The wood and inserts are ready and waiting
To do more would require them to sourse more inserts, and that requires a donkey trek to the ends of the earth

Stu, but until the wood is cut, it is just a sheet of wood
It might be turned into a Bally playfield, it mightbe turned iinto a Williams playfield
Same with most inserts
Paragon inserts are the same as Star Trek inserts
If they are not needed for this project, they can beused for another

Most businesses have to to plan ahead, get iinventory in.
And are then subject to the whims of those wonderful people, the customer

Stu, I am not going to argue
But predicting customer tends is a part of running a business
We all have to do it, and we will never be 100% successful

Re time; Kevin has explained about the wood
The plywood is custom made for CPR
Who ever makes it cannot just drop eeverything and make what would be, a short run of plywood
The wood is probablyvthe biggest PITA for Kevin

@Foraisu, i have a problem with Kevin coming on to Pinside and complaining his customers are not loyal enough

II'd love it if my customers were predictable, but the are not. It is part of running a business. If you deal with customers then you have tottake the good with the bad
Every other business has the same issues
Kevin needs to deal with it
