UPS delivered 69 molds from Lee this afternoon. I opened on of the boxes and pulled the first mold my hand hit. It certainly "looks" like what we ordered with no obvious visual screw ups.
I have a slew of family arriving this afternoon for Thanksgiving, so I wont get to cast some bullets until early next week. I want to make certain the molds are a reasonable version of the specs we sent. If there is a major problem, I can send the molds back in bulk rather than having 63 people send them back one at a time. I guess this is part of the Honcho job description.
I was very specific in my letter to Lee that we would not accept deviation from the specs and that note was reflected on the invoice that came with the molds, so we have them by the cajones if the molds are out of spec.
If all is well, I will start the mailing next week. I have the labels printed and ready to go. I will try and get ten to twenty per day in the mail.
I will post again on this thread next week to let you know the results of the test casts and the start of shipping. So far ..so good!
