Quoted from Skypilot:

I received what appears to be the final revision today. I am leaving in the morning on the booze bus. We will be making our way to the Silver Ball Country Club and then to Allentown. When I return and get settled I will get to work on installing this.The playfield is cleared and ready to go so it should not be too long.

Those prototypes have the most amazing ability to arrive just as you are leaving on vacation, or family has arrived for Christmas, or you've just started some other big project.

Quoted from cjchand:

Would be really interested in how many orders they received. I'm presuming the reason for the pause to retool is because they feel demand is sufficient to make it worthwhile. Hoping that's the case, as I want them to continue.

Hardtops are a hobby sideline in a Graphic Arts business. I suspect the business is upgrading and so the "surplus" time and equipment to do Hardtops is going away. But the new stuff will probably have more capability, be faster, more accurate, yada, yada. Good things to come. Unfortunately, more waiting.

Would you believe Skypilot's "final prototype" in post #112 had this? Amazing.
