I emailed with Erik I think early summer and Covid was preventing him from going to Asia to check on the work now with the Delta variant I don't what effect that will have. Now getting space to ship them when ready is another question. I talked with my farm supplier this week and was told this story on the bale wrap we use on the big round hay bales. The American company has it made in Brazil, shipping containers are in such short supply they have to bid on them so shortly before bidding closed they offered a $12,000 premium per container to get several containers but at the last minute Walmart jumped in at $15,000 premium per container to have their stuff shipped here. That cost will be passed on to the consumer so think what it could do to future model prices if things don't settle down. In California people were paying ransom prices of $6,000 a container to get their full containers moved out of the docks.
