They're working on the new design to revamp some of the minor issues with the previous one. Put me down for one when they're ready!

Put me down. I called them twice last year wanting to buy an FRP Feed hood. Nothing.

The market exists.

Talked to Ken on the phone the other day and he informed me the hood will be released in a few months. He has the hood but just hasn't been able to test fit it, etc. yet.

Just got off the phone with Ken. He said there's no plans for a group buy for the hood.

he knows there is enough demand that people will buy it anyways.

i'd like to go ahead and pay a deposit to get on a list just to get the dang thing.

Yeah. He said it's not necessary. It'll still be a pretty long time.

The last time I talked to Ken, he said that the guy who was supposed to provide a prototype hood did a terrible job doing so. I think he's gonna ****-can the whole project unless something happens.

You'd probably find several of us here in the states who are interested. However, the freight charge would likely be...significant.

I am curious, though. PM me with predicted pricing.

Given the price the bloke wants for it and the shipping - its expensive as you say. I just done some rough estimates and itd be around $1k total to the US. Maybe slightly more. No idea what they go for over your side of the water so.....

Not me selling, just noticed this thread when looking for one for myself and thought id mention it
