Guy who I had lined up to make them started doing corporate work and is now officially too busy. I've gotten a sample from another maker but it wasn't good enough quality to warrant the cost and I returned it. I need to get back on this, there are other people out there who do this.

In our current situation of enforced leisure I have done heavy research into another possible manufacturer of these and believe I have found someone. The good news is they will be cheaper! In the $65 range rather than the $100 from the first fella. The bad news is the company is currently closed down due to the pandemic. I'm in conversation with the owner and am sending out the original for them to look at and produce a prototype as soon as they reopen. I'm actually stunned I found someone else, nobody makes patches by hand this way anymore hardly. Hopefully their work is as good as the first. The minimum order will be 12 pieces to get this lower price. If we can get that many folks interested we'll move forward.

Good to see David Fishley was sent on vacation.
