Hi All,

We now have 9 confirmed.

The current plan is speak with matt and sort if he is happy with making 9 of the same and if he would do the custom ones.

Matt and I will need to order the material as I dont think its stock for him from what I understand. There may be a deposit to put in for this, I will update how this will be paid when I know.

I think the specs are well enough defined in the first post. If people need more, let me know.

I'll update more when I have it.

Quick Q (if it's not too stupid). - what size of sleeping mat do these things need?

I have a Synmat UL7S (163x52cm). Is that going to work OK?

if the answer is Yes, make mine a definite (that should be 10?)

Dave's speccing a sewn in footbox so that would work fine Colin.

I'm dave k

Not sure why I put that instead of forum name on the list.

Could people pm me with their email address And real names.

If i end up needing a deposit I'll then make a Google docs spready with the names on and most importantly the steps I am taking and the status of each step.
I didn't get round to emailing matt today but will tomorrow for sure.

Looks like I'm in then!

let me know how much/when you want the money. Happy to pay it all up-front if that helps with cashflow.

Right all. Updates will continue here until I have all 10 emails then I switch to emailing.

Communicated with Matt,

Current lead times are 6-8 weeks (so mid to late april delivery looks do-able). It will speed things up If we order the material ourselves and when I deliver it to matt, he will shoehorn us into the machinist time.

I will be ordering 50m of this stuff today

If you have a colour choice that is in stock, post here before 16:00 or I'm picking (I like blue) :-bd

Just checking - all quilts are exactly the same right? (i.e. no individual changes)

No problem if so, just checking

Yup,

all the same, This enables keeping the cost pretty low and the lead time as low as possible.
