RE: Clancy Lazy Bee

I just got an email from Hobby People. They are real nice and they are the ones who are backing Andy Clancy. They are transfering the production machinery form die cut to laser cutting. They will have an ARF and a regular kit but it will be real nice with the laser cut parts!!!!! Here is what Mike had to say.......

Actually, just got back from the factory that is doing both.

They are in the works, but as with all things it seems, it is harder than we realized.

This was one of the older designs and a lot of work had to be done to bring it up to date for laser cutting.

We expect the ARF and kit first half of next year.

Sorry, I wish the news was better, but this is simply a larger task than any of us realized.
