Unfortunately, we were not aware of this until after you put them "Out Of Stock". What parts are currently unavailable?

Also, we were able to get a local source/sponsor for the pancake cylinders, so we ordered them using the part number in your build instructions. When they came in, they were the square ones, which don't match the mounting holes in the plates--apparently, we need the round cylinders. Can you verify that the part number in the instructions is correct, and if not, could you change it for future users so we get the right cylinder?

BTW, the quality and construction are really top-notch!!
Hi Mike,
Check my post above (#136), it has all the part numbers needed for the correct cylinders, shaft screws and mounting screws.

We ran into this issue a week ago. RC gave us the corrected info. With overnight from McMaster we are all set now.
BTW, you are right about the build quality!
