I processed right around 100 photos for the Stereomour manual on Monday. Yesterday I got the first 30 pages of the manual written and illustrated, and I will be continuing that process today. So we are getting close!

OK, we are rolling on this one! I have a few pages left to produce for the manual - should be wrapped today. A long time Bottlehead who ordered right at the start picked up his two Stereomour kits sans manuals on Friday afternoon so he could bring them home with him from a visit to Seattle. More go in the boxes today -

We are waiting for a second production run of transformers to arrive, which will probably be another week or two. Half of that second run is already sold. So it is difficult for us to predict if the any of that run will still be available in a couple of weeks or not. We haven't yet ordered parts for a third run yet - it will take around three or four weeks to get them once we do.

OK, I am down to the last step on the manual, organizing the table of contents. The photos on this one came out quite good, I think it should be pretty easy to follow. The manuals will start ripping and we should be shipping first run kits tomorrow. Second run kits should not be too far behind the first run, maybe a week or two.

Hey, hey, hey,  Checked my email after dinner and noticed the UPS quantum view notice!

Looks like I'll be getting a box o' fun on Friday.

Thanks to all the BH crew for getting these out!

Doc, you don't know how bad I want to order one of these - comes down to whether I should spend money on my "house projects" or yet another tube project.....

Several more kits shipped today, and we should begin to ship the second run as soon as the iron arrives.

Yes I think your order is in the second run. I will need to check with Eileen, but I think we may now have just a couple of kits left in that run.

Doc,

Congratulations on getting the Stereomour out...that is quite the accomplishment!  And congrats on getting your new digs...moving is so much work but it will all be worth it over the long run.

Looking forward to the kit arriving and keeping busy by building my Quickie kit in red and black!

Just want to verify that we asked for an update from the winder and it was confirmed that we are indeed still two weeks out on the second production run of power transformers. By the time they arrive we should be shipping from the new office.

Hey Doc, just checking in to see how things are coming along, last update the transformers were two weeks out...........are we still on that schedule and if so when do you think the second run of Stereomour's might ship out?
