Title: At Last .... a decent set of Buffer Stops!
Post by: John Candy on Aug 31 2012 10:09
Not quite yet ready for sale ... but almost there ... so here is a preview to whet your appetite!

John Witts has developed a very nice kit for the stops shown in the photos below.
They are assembled using 50+ sets of 12BA nuts and bolts and may be supplied as a kit or ready-assembled.

Projected release date of the first batch is around end of October and numbers will be limited.

The price has not yet been finalised (a result of increases in the cost of materials since the first samples were made) but the price indication given to me by John will make them very good value.

I will post updates on availability and cost when received from John.
