Any news on this? Has anybody else had any success in taking over the rights?
Any news? Anything else like it in production?
Anybody have any information on this? I have been in the plastic injection molding business for 16 years. I am the technical supervisor over the molding, maintenance and tooling department. I have many connections. I do not know what the mod consists of, but I am sure interested in hearing or seeing what it is.
I guess you mean the plans for the pieces not in production any longer?? Someone out there should be able to help locate the info for ya.Quote:

I am now a project manager and work in product design and development, I source tooling in the US but mostly in China, I have researched the feasibility of making tooling for these parts but the tools would be fairly large and expensive, not to mention the conversion of the parts from existing patterns over to electronic data (or pantographing) which would be very costly. I was able to offer the parts previously because I worked a deal with a prototype shop in lieu of me hooking them up with clients but that was over 5 years ago and now the cost of RTV Silicone and plastic material costs are too high and they stopped making parts due to the sheer expense. Annually I only sold 100 or so of these and more recently the numbers were dropping off pretty quickly. If you have an idea of how I could get tools made that would justify less than 100 systems sold per year that would not drive the entire system cost over $300 (retail) I'm all ears. PM me and I'll give you my phone number so we can talk.
Thanks
Brian
