Where's the case color samples?

That price seems very optimistic, especially for what you plan to offer. If you truly can achieve that price, I might buy two just to help reach that MOQ. I love my MB-44, so getting a 13u version with a spicy bottom would definitely be nice.

We are informed that due to the city being blocked to fight COVID-19, the factory has to be closed and unable to carry out normal production, which will make a delay in the S46 prototype, and we are trying to find another way to make it happen.

Very clean design, I like it for a 40. GLWIC

Been looking for a while for an affordable little brick mostly to display and add to the collection since I can't live without a numrow, definitely interested!

Concerning the brass weight I have also had my eyes open for something I could eventually send in for a patina job and I believe at least a PVD coating would have the be removed to get that done. Not entirely sure what the requirements on the weight material are (and kneedeep's form is closed down atm so I can't check there), but if brass can be used for that I'd be down to grab an extra for that.

40s fans will love this. Pricing seems very cheap but if you actually manage to pull off under $200 you can count me in!

OMG love this layout! Interested!

ggggggg · « **Reply #13 on:** Sun, 17 April 2022, 02:16:09 »

I want to like this, but please consider supporting more layouts. The right shift placement alone is pretty much killing it for me, and that's ignoring the opinionated bottom row - give us choices!

Wow, you actually achieved that pricing? Well I guess I need to hold myself accountable and buy two... At least this helps me with deciding on colors!
