my understanding was it would be a week lead time once all payment is received.

hopefully we'll have it in 2 weeks.

i dont know if your design is set in stone, but i think you would have more gains by tapering the kneck of the lid.. start out as wide as posible from the lid, then smoothly transition it to the size of the MAF meter.

did they make the mold already?
if you have a CAD file of this i can do some work on improving it.
what type of mold is being used? injection mold or vacuum formed?

The mold has been set since about 1 year ago and the first batch ( other than the prototype) was picked up yesterday and will ship this week. If I can get enough orders for another batch I will produce more. The cost will go up if I do another batch, I didnt make a dime on this first batch because there was no demand..now there is becomming a demand. If you have any questions please drop me an e-mail.

Thanks,
Brian

They should go out tomorrow...I was waiting for everybody's phone numbers, but I haven't gotten all of them yet. Another guy is shipping them for me, his wife works for Fedex. I told them to go ahead and ship all that I had numbers for and would send the last two when I recieved the phone numbers
