    Indeed. I purchased the handwheel for the jack and it actually had all the tiniest imperfections -noticeable with a magnifier-of my cracked original. Except the crack of course :)

    Martin,
    much demand …. but less when you you ask for confirmation and payment, believe me !

    I am not in competition with ANYBODY. I had a problem with somes parts and I tried to propose my solution. I still have one project part that I would like round off. But that could be the very last one.
    I am proud of the result but I spent to much time and money but not many support.

    Cannot confirm this. I sold around 120pcs. of my LED handbrake lever lights so far. And had a very small percentage (5-10% at best) of folks, who ordered, but didn't pay.
    And that's not even an original part. It doesn't even resemble the original part.
    But I have to admit, I sold not one single light in the originality fetish countries Germany and France.

    Would be interested in a statement from Verell, how his Unobtainium Supply business runs.

    I cannot imagine a salesman worse than me. So bad, that for my engineering business I hired and pay a 'job hunter' :)

    Why did you chose to make your own lever housing instead of ordering my plastic one?

    No,, the only difference is not visible when the part is installed. It is the use of a metal link instead of the far too fragile plastic one.

    IT'S simple: Payment must be received before I ship product.
    I'd guess that about 95% or more of the inquiries I receive result in purchases.

    Slowly I begin finding it extremely weird, that meanwhile originality fetishism goes that far, that invisible improvements are not accepted.
