Hi Guys
Just a quick update Peter has emailed me with a confirmation that he has received payment and will be shipping out the Machados shortly with tracking information.

Just to review Troy, Chris and Dan will be getting the order directly. I will redistribute the rest to all of our US participants once they arrive.

Best
Michael

Glad to hear everything worked out Mike! I know you were sweating bullets there for a while...

Thanks again for agreeing to do this one. (And for those who don't know, there has been a *TON* of extra work on Mike's part needed to make this happen.) I know I owe you for this, pal...

Thanks Mike! Much appreciated
There's a beer or two with your name on it, should we ever bump into each other at the CARIBLEM/ potential future SELEM's

Thank from me as well.

Look forward to getting it and actually doing something besides 70+ hour work weeks. I need some lazor downtime

Hi Guys
No worries lets just hope they all arrive in one piece that's my final worry. In the future lets not deal with wire transfers if they don't take Paypal or Credit cards forgetaboutit. Wire transfers with currency conversion are expensive and scary!

Hi Mike,
The grating arrive yesterday! Many thanks indeed Sir.
I haven't fired up the gasser yet, so I'm going to save it for a special occasion and test it out when all 8 lines are lasing away.

Best Regards,
Dan

Thanks for the update Dan how big is it? 1" X 1" ? Did it arrive in between some kind of rigid material?
