Got ya, I'm paying attention, thanks for your interest?

I'm up to 35 of them boxed and piled up just waiting printed instructions, pushing to get the full 100+ done before I launch the website.

I'm also in the middle of the patent process, if I go through with it, I really want it done before the website goes up (super duper special thanks to Grumpaw on that, his son is a high level patent atty and totally helped me to understand that complicated process, thank you tenfold Grumpaw) his son has informed about how really specific I have to be, which means I have to give up my forming process to the public, not sure I really want to do that, I could do like Tesla, no patents, let them try to reverse engineer it :LOL: it's so complicated, they probably would never get it right. (I hope)

I have said it before... The support here has made such a difference!

I have been slowed by a miniature problem in the shop :LOL:

So I put her to work in the shipping dept, you might see a few chew marks in the box though!

The good news is she puts up with all the shop noise!
congrats on the new pup

Hey Mike,

Instead of throwing away the ones that don't make the cut; you can always use them to play fetch with or maybe use as a chew toy ???????????
Ha, the steel braid sure would dull those puppy teeth and I have a drawer full of rejects :LOL:

Don't know about the rest of you, but I find myself checking the transmission fluid more often than I have typically done with previous vehicles......... just because I can! :clap: :rockon:

Another Fitzstick fan! It took an hour to install (I am old and dexterity challenged LOL) plus I dropped the 8MM bolt and had to run to Ace but everything is as described and quality is Job 1 (see what I did there). Packaging was phenomenal and this is a bargain at the current price. Thx Mike!

edit phenomenal :) another one of my challenges

Oh man, I can’t wait. I checked my fluid yesterday with the stock dipstick. What an absolute PITA! This is going to be a godsend
You'll love it!

I checked mine yesterday at a gas station with my Fitzstick. Took all of 30 seconds. :)

It sounds like you may want to just consider your dip stick as trade secret. That way you don't have to divulge anything. Just keep records and dates on it just in case someone tries to patent it. My company has filed patents on many mechanical devises I have developed. However, I have also developed various types of coating for the aerospace industry that we just keep as trade secrets. All the information on them is in my lab book and we have never had any problems protecting that information. An Air Force lab tried to reverse engineer one of my better coatings without success.
