Default Lambert RC

Is Ken Lambert out of the conversion business like the others that have disappeared. Tried to get on the site but another page comes up.

I had sent Ken a message from this site and today I received this message from his wife.R.I.P. Ken and condolences to his family.

Hello, I am Mrs. Ken Lambert. Sorry to tell you, but Ken passed away. I closed the web site. I am using his account on RC universe to sell his R/C items. Thank you for thinking of him!

How many people have the equipment or the skills to do it ? I certainly don't have the equipment ,skills or a place to do it..I even asked a local machine shop if they could do it but with their workload the owner said he couldn't take one of his employees off the orders he has to do a couple of pieces.He said if he would get an order for at least 100 pieces he could schedule the work in.
Now would be a good time for the guys on here that have their own equipment to make a little extra money when someone wants conversion parts.

Best Regards...
