I have lots of pictures of the prototype but as of yet the foundry hasn't sent me pictures of the production pieces yet

Thanks for the response Erniepower!

Still looking good for mid-July shipments for those who have ordered?

Yep. As of right now, we have plenty of inventory to cover pre orders. The only delay is going to be how fast can my wife and I pack and ship boxes. Hahaha

I dont even take bananas in my truck anymore while going fishing. Last time my bait bucket flew out the back of my truck.

My last time I just peeled a banana and casually opened my rod case. My favorite custom built rod was 6” shorter than before... that was about 15 years ago. I haven’t had one since.

You may as well have a voodoo witch doctor conjour the demons on you if you bring a banana on a fishing trip.

Just to show you guys that we truly are getting somewhere. These will need to be machined, heat treated and bead blasted, but they look pretty darn good so far!

That thing looks great! Can’t wait to see the final assembled product. I may have missed the date in previous threads...any rough estimates for the preorders to ship out for the platform?

I detest bananas! I guess that is why I have never heard this. I won't even let my wife eat one in a car while I'm driving. My uncle on the other hand loves bananas and is always breaking a fishing rod. I will have to see if next time he breaks one if he bought a banana on a trip with him.

I ate bananas on boats for 20 years before someone freaked out when they saw me eating it. I can eat one without actually touching the part I eat. Doesn’t require refrigeration and the packaging is biodegradable. I even caught pinfish on little pieces of the peel just to irk the guy I was fishing with that was freaking out. Everything was going good until he ran through a quarter mile patch of floating grass on the way back and the motor overheated because the intake port was covered in weeds. Somehow it was my fault for bringing a banana aboard a vessel he named “ebay special”. If I ever get to build a boat I intend on mixing banana purée in with my floatation foam.

Will the Predator have nylon bushings or washers in the pivot to lessen squeaks? I might have already asked that but the dementia tells me it's okay to ask again....
