Looks great, keep up the good work. It sounds like you're really on to something here mate.
I keep hoping you will do a follow up. Can you mass produce these? I would like to be considered an agent for north america pacific coast sales if your price system allows for this markup. Neil Thompson nsthomp@telus.net 604-922-2398. If you e-mail your telephone no I will call you.
