Good news. No, actually
GREAT NEWS !!!
I was able to pull a rabbit out of my hat, and I have in my possession, right this moment 25 Sys2 lid-sort Systainers. You know what that means, right...
The 60 days we waited for the last batch to arrive from Germany will not be needed this time. And no customs problems. Those delays are GONE - Out Of The Picture - Deleted!
It am still waiting for the Carmine Red Latches, and it will still take me some time to get them printed, get the supplies in, and build them - but we're looking at more like 30-45 days instead of the 100+ for the first batch. I feel fairly comfortable saying I wil be able to ship this batch around the end of September. Assuming I can stop injuring myself, of course!
[eek]
There were a few people who 'signed up' but haven't paid or contacted me. I PM'd them tonight - just a one-time reminder in case they simply forgot. Hey, it happens!
If anyone was on the fence because of a long lead time, the situation has changed. Dramatically. For the BETTER!
You've got about 58 hours to get your payment in if you want to be a part of FOG history. If you don't act by noon on Tuesday...well, it's this deal that will be history!
( Instead of sounding like WOW!, I'm starting to sound like Sham-WOW!)

And Festool dealers - if you're interested in owning one of these kits I am interested in a trade for shiny new green items. PM me for details - I'm sure we can work something out!
