Maybe build up a waiting list and when you reach the magic # of buyers, make a run.

I email techno this am asking if they will sell the tooling they have. I have a few c.f items. c.f Center counsel (think i have 5 produced right now but need to be finished) door trim rings (have two sets left right now) center counsel storage compartment (don't have lids done yet), wiper delete pieces, carbon clambshell and carbon front hood. The molds techno have are easy to remake if they wont sell them. Would take a little interest to do those pieces tho but are doable.

Talked to one of the partners of tecno last night as I got his contact info through one of my carbon suppliers..
They are gonna want ludicrous money for the tooling. It would never repay its self back. The only option imo would be to build new tooling at this point.

Sad, Techno not cooperative, especially when they are closed for business. Thanks for checking.

The main owner of the company has lost all interest as he owns a bunch of business's..

Did you buy the other tooling from Kip? Maybe he would sell or license his remaining tooling?

I did not, I made my own tooling. Mark H from M2k bought a couple molds from him.

My mistake, thanks for the clarification.

Thought would bump this up again, in case anyone has a set that are gathering dust....
