Stooge products update
2005-05-18 by J. Larry Hendry
OK, Yesterday afternoon, I got through the massive training session I had been planning for weeks (on top of all my regular work). So, except for all the limbs trees in my yard and grass that has not been mowed this year, I am getting back to normal. My average work day since about last Tuesday has been between 14 and 16 hours (and that included Saturday and Sunday). I apologize for the delay in the response to cable orders and other items. Now, that I have that behind me, I can press forward. Here is the update: Cable orders: I will be processing these over the next day or two and getting all invoices out this weekend. I will place the actual order on Monday. So, if you have procrastinated, my long work days = your good luck. You can still send me that last minute order if you like. Stooge Panels: There has been much behind-the-scene work concerning new designs. We are working on those. If you have things you want in this upcoming run, now is a good time to be discussing what that might be with Dave and I. Flat rails: I just picked these up from the metal shop. I need to run the 4000 screws into the holes and send them off to powder coat. These will be back in stock soon. 19" rack power supply panels (for SKB cases): These are in process right now. I plan to offer these for sale in a variety of options from just the blanks panel with all the holes in the right spot, to a completely assemble version (you send me your MOTM-900 or I buy one directly from Paul). I have 16 panels coming for this conversion. I also have a few more panels coming that will have just the AC connector, fuse, and a switch all mounted on the panel you can buy and mount up any power supply you already have. Look for more information on these in about 4 weeks when I have them in my hands and ready to sell. I'm not competing with Paul on Power supplies, just offering a mounting / conversion process for power supplies you buy from him, or otherwise might have. My original design includes 4 optional mults. If you are trying to save space in your SKB pop up by putting the power supply in the 2U space, I figured that you might also like to save the space otherwise taken by a mults panel. SKB backs: I'm going to ask the metal shop if they will consider a small run of these when I am ordering all my other metal. If you sent me an e-mail saying you were interested, I saved it. If you are interested in these and have not sent me an e-mail, please do so. Stooge Larry (feeling human again).
