Thanks, guys...

 

I've got good news and great news...

 

First the good news; not only are the steel reefer spacers finished, but I now have prototype runs of the ones for the PS-1 & Round Top Boxcars, and the Atlas steel reefers as well... I hope to have them test fit and install video done tonight.

 

Here's the great news; I've had the design changed so that I can print them in bulk, instead of pairs.  This DFM (design for manufacturing) improvement is allowing me to save over 50% of the time that it took to print the same amount in pairs.  So this means cost savings to the consumer.

 

I'm aiming for $3.50-$4.50 per car, depending on bulk packaging!  That's about the same price as the couplers.

 

Keep an eye out for more install video posts...

 

Thanks,

Mario
