Wow!
Welcome to the world of small scale manufacturing.
I haven't been involved in that since the early '90s and NOW I remember why.

In any case, you must hand it to this man.
He stated his goal, pursued it, and realized it.
And to top it all, its a damned nice case.

Thanks Iggy...you should have told me though!

I'm also bloody shattered!

Hey, I'm a refuge from another computer community.
But I've been here long enough to expect that once you had announced your intentions, I'd spend the next several years hearing about how the hardware was due in "about two weeks".

But you did it!
And they looked really nice.

Warn you?
Nah! Those experiences were just long enough ago that I look back on them with real pride and a sense of accomplishment (even though it was the closest to bankrupt that I have ever been).

Welcome to that odd little community of people who just wanted to produce something that they would want for themselves.
It doesn't have to make economic sense.
And its never pain free.

But, when it works, its really f'ing cool.
To repeat myself, damned nice work man.

"why do you do it if you're not making any money out of it"

Looking at your post, I think you know why.
And if there was ever any money to be made from the Amiga community, that is pretty much gone.
