Thanks for letting me know what's going on. George said last Friday that it was going to ship this Monday. I never heard from him again after that. My communications with him has been in private until I stopped hearing from him.
Having to deal over the internet and having to deal with a small business can cause a lot of anxiety, especially if there' s a lot of money involved. It may be a pain sometimes, but it's always important to keep the line of communications open with customers. I know, I was a small business owner until I sold my ownership and retired.
P.S. I did get an email from George today too explaining what happened.
As for the channel for the 4x8 table top,it is kind of custom job from what i have and also the imperial profiles they are bolting to.I cant really control when they would have them done,but had to get them redone because i forgot to tell him they where for imperial profile and got them slotted instead of the just drilled hole.
As some people on the forum would know, i just spend over a week to get machines from customs straighten out ,and with new laws for imports in to the USA was worried about losing them and getting confiscated for no paper work or commercial invoice with machines ,as they put wrong stickers on the boxes and wrong papers in packets
