    Well folks, the time has come... My offer on a house was accepted so the next two months will be a flurry of moving and other debacles.

    So now for the good news: More shop space (and dedicated space) for the basin shipyards operation. In addition, for those looking at getting into making more hulls, I plan on offering at a reasonable price (based on hull overall dimensions) to CNC cut from pink builders foam a rough plug (would be in multiple pieces. I also plan on transitioning my Tirpitz molded parts to Tugboat, although we are still working out the details. I also will (if I can do it easily) offer customizable machined gearboxes (aluminum or delrin) for folks with specific needs.

    And now for the bad news. I will not be taking any orders until I am moved in and my shop is set back up. The other bad news is that the R&D budget has been slashed due to moving from renting to owning.

    have fun battling everyone.

    -Greg

    Hey, great news! Glad you got the house! I suspect your R&D budget may be bolstered with commission work ;) Talk to you on Sunday.
