Zeek is Brian stranger from Inkom ID he keeps trying to claim he has a patent but the bottom line is he has "NEVER" supplyed me with a Patent #
He claims to own a water jet shop in that town but the tax records do not show him as being the owner of it, He claims its a union shop but I can find no record of it, He also claims to own a company called Stranger MFG and there is no record of it anywhere.

But I can say I ordered one of his benders and after a week I got tired of waiting for it so I programed up the mill and made some, when I got his part in it was "CRAP" He did not debur it at all, it had paint on parts of it and rust on other parts, one of the parts was cut from the edge of the sheet and was missing a corner.

PATENT MARKING AND "PATENT PENDING"
(Excerpted from General Information Concerning Patents print brochure)
A patentee who makes or sells patented articles, or a person who does so for or under the patentee is required to mark the articles with the word "Patent" and the number of the patent. The penalty for failure to mark is that the patentee may not recover damages from an infringer unless the infringer was duly notified of the infringement and continued to infringe after the notice.

The marking of an article as patented when it is not in fact patented is against the law and subjects the offender to a penalty. Some persons mark articles sold with the terms "Patent Applied For" or "Patent Pending." These phrases have no legal effect, but only give information that an application for patent has been filed in the Patent and Trademark Office. The protection afforded by a patent does not start until the actual grant of the patent. False use of these phrases or their equivalent is prohibited.

This is ashame. I ordered a box4rox kit a long time ago. It took about 3 months to get it, but once I did, I was impressed.

The reason I didn't care as much as some might have was because the price was right.

At least the products will still be available. Luckily I already got what I needed. :D

Ya some times I run a few weeks to a few months with out stock on box4rocks kits. It takes from 4 to 5 machine hours to make a kit, so like this run of close to 100 plates and 180+shafts I have about 600+ hour of machine time it them. That means that a normale machine shop that runs one operater per machine it would take one guy 4 months to make the run of parts. but I run 4 to 6 machines by my self to keep over head down and cost to the customer down. as soon as the county gets off there butts and gives me the new zoning I well hire 2 or 3 guys and well think about going on two shifts a day in the shop.

Please clarify this for me:

You are leaving PIRATE, but you will still be distributing the Box for rocks?

Or you are getting away from the 4x4 end of things COMPLETELY?

I have your B4R already, and i LOVE it.

It was without a doubt THE best bang for the buck I have in my YJ.

If you are only leaving Pirate, I may buy another kit just for spare parts!

Thanks again for all your help, both on the phone and here via posts and PMs.

Best regards,

chris

I just talked to Duffy and my doubler is shipping today. He has plenty of extra doubler kits (231/300) available. He has been very backed up, better get them while you can. The price for the kit with the flipped 300 twin sticks
is "around" $700.00.

wow, this escaped me until right now. There is going to be drama on a board like this, and a busy guy like duffy doesn't have the time to deal with it and make the parts we like. I'm pretty sure when I did my box4rox through him, I just paypalled him with the spline count and it came as promised, for a more than reasonable price. I have spoken with him on the phone several times, and I know how valuable that time is. IMO it is one of the best products out there, and certainly the best for the price. Hope it all works itself out
