Thanks Dan.

Post Mon Mar 16, 2009 1:15 am

any body have any pics of these?
I'm dying to see what this compromise looks like

Post Mon Mar 16, 2009 7:15 pm

No reply to email or P.M's? Jhonno have you got my delivery address? Getting a bit concerned over lack of communication.

Post Mon Mar 16, 2009 7:31 pm

I wouldnt worry too much fella, dan has taken a while to reply to my emails/pms before and was just too busy to remember them! Came good in the end.

Post Wed Mar 18, 2009 3:07 am

Dan - can you ask these guys to post mine out please. I've PMd the address.

Ta.

Anyone apart from BadDave got these yet?

It looks like it may be an issue with the company that's been used to manufacture the tabs.

Dan(Jhonno) picked up mine and sent them up to me,as I was happy with that delivery method.

It might be a good idea to let folks who paid direct,know who's manufacturing the tabs and there contact details(contacts name,address and phone number).
It would give them the opportunity to contact the Fab shop involved directly regarding the delivery issues.

DanThe has got his also..

Having spoken to them, it sounds like they have messed it up again. I gave them a drawing to make them, the previous problem was 'rectified', where I took the drawing up again and left of one the correctly orientated ones on their desk, only for them it would appear to rerun the wrong ones

They apparently are having to re run them again! Which has confused the hell out of me, as when I went up to get Dave's and DanThe's, they pulled a bag out and it had correctly orientated tabs in which were supposedly the rerun batch

I can only apologise and say lessons learnt with dealing with Group Buys.. I will take money next time and pay and post out myself etc

I would honestly feel bad about giving the company name out, as I don't feel what has gone on is an accurate representation of them.. Frustrating as it has been

Post Thu Mar 19, 2009 6:43 pm

Dan, I pm'd you about the problem with those you sent me, I take it they were from a 'faulty batch'? Are they making some to the drawing now?

Post Thu Mar 19, 2009 7:53 pm

As there's an issue with the one's sent to Danthe,I've just double checked the one's that were sent to me.

The ones sent to me.

And the ones in the post/I.E site.

The ones i've got appear to be the correct ones.

Post Thu Mar 19, 2009 7:57 pm

All sorted!

Just a guess, but i reckon they folded the wrong 2 edges meaning the slotted holes ran parallel to the raised edges.

All sorted!

Post Thu Mar 19, 2009 8:23 pm

Well, if you try a bolt into them Dave you will realise they have been made wrong! The edges should not be folded, the piece should be made from 8mm flat bar, they should be milled, the folded edge creates a radius which stops the bolt dropping all the way in, ive exchanged a few pm's with Jhonno about it and it seems he has filed down the edges of the bolts/washers so they fit flush, I dont like the idea of this as apart from the amount of money the firm has had out of this group buy the folded edge is much thinner and with a weld on the back of it its likely to distort, if they are making them again im up for returning these

Post Thu Mar 19, 2009 8:58 pm

A milled 90deg edge would indeed be better than the current folded edge.

Jhonno did mention that there would be a little tweak required to make it work as it should.

A proper milled set of tabs would be the preferred option, however, as they've mucked up 2 batches already, there's probably little chance of them doing a milled batch.

This is the trouble! I shall speak to them and see if they have started the new batch, if not then I will ask them to mill them.

I have no idea why they folded them tbh!

The 'wrong' ones they did with the slot parallel to the lip as has been said! I get the feeling I am not their favourite person, as they seem to be blaming me for the error, when I have only ever given them 1 drawing and a even the above picture of what they should look like

Post Thu Mar 19, 2009 10:55 pm

Sorry if you boys think im being fussy, but if they are being arsey ive no problem having my money back, and TBH id rather that than these folded tabs
