Title: Keta Kranks ORDERS CLOSED
Post by: Keta on January 31, 2017, 07:41:31 AM
Is there any demand for 113H/349H size handle arms at somewhere around $15.00-$18.00 each?  I need to sell 15 to break even and if I get commitments for the 15 I will buy the material and cut them.


Larger or smaller handle arms?

Lee, if you are doing the 2 hole position for the 113H, I would take 4.
Thanks and have a great day,  ..  Lou

I will be able to cut any of my Kranks up to 4.5" so a pre order can be the 2 hole type.  That is the one I prefer too.

Is this referring to the two-hole model on this thread?  http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=9209.0   Assuming these will fit the Penn Mag 980...  I'd like to buy one, please, and can prepay today.  /Joe

No pre pay, I have to do a test cut in the new material to make sure the hole is a proper fit snd I have to order the material.  I am going to have these laser cut to reduce hole taper.

"What is short?"    The 2 hole is 4.5" overall  from end to center od first hole is 3.4", center of second hole is 4.15".  I have a drawing for a handle arm that is 1 hole with the end to center length of 3.4".

Ok, as of now I have enough requests to order a 12"x12" sheet of 15-5 SS.  I will order the material next Wednesday when my SS check arrives.

I will PM each of you and make sure I cut what you want.

I would like two of the the single hole.  The original post asked "Larger or smaller arm?" I assumed that meant longer or shorter.  Thanks for making these.

Sorry I was not clear, I meant Type A (500/112H) and Type C (114H) handle arms.  I am not sure if I can do a Type C with the thickness I am going to order.

Lee, if you are going to do a run for 112h handles then I will take one too
Thats make it one 113h and one 112h
Title: Re: Keta Kranks
Post by: Keta on February 02, 2017, 06:42:45 AM
I have enough pre sold to order a 12"x24" sheet and I will be cutting Type A and B, if the material is thick enough I will cut some Type C's.  I can order thicker material if I can sell 15-18 Type C handle arms.

The SS alloy I am ordering is far harder than the 308 and 316 I have been using.

No problem, my lack of experience with the terminology.  Two to fit the 113h with single holes.

I have considered 50% but I hate taking $ before I have the parts.  Things should get better once it warms up and the heating bill goes down.

Spending $  on things like rebarreling a rifle for sage rat shooting and my wife destroying a year old tire by driving 5 miles on it flat don't help.

I not gonna tell you if is a good move to sell reels to buy the materials or not but the normal way when you order something custom is that you have to prepay 50% to ensure the business to the seller, if someone cancel the order is money loss for you and that no ok.

I also totally open to a 50% prepay, why dont you calculate the cost of the material and ask for 10 or 12 guys that wanted to prepay 50% enough to cover the materials, the rest of the orders can pay you in full when you get the parts finished.

When I have a rod or reel from a friend or from a walk-in customer and ask me to fix their rods/reels, I'd ask for 50% prepay, I hate having rods or reels sitting on my shelf for weeks or months cuz the customer its not in a hurry to get it back, well with 50% prepay at least I have my money from materials covered.

Title: Re: Keta Kranks
Post by: Keta on March 02, 2017, 05:20:33 PM
The reels I am selling are ones I do not use.  I will think over a 50%  deposit but I would not feel right if it was not refundable, things happen and I would not want to put others in a bind.

Not that I'm a significant player in the trade on this site, but, at least in principle, sharing risk between seller and buyer seems like the "ohana" thing to do :)  Generally it is the seller who takes the bigger risk.
