so the saying goes... you get what you pay for... you can burn out a few 35 dollar ones or you can buck up and get something like this that is handcrafted and made here in the states... i would say if your gonna go the cheaper route spend at least 50 or 60 on one... the cheap ones are garbage IMO... hope this helps ya

Thanks everyone for your patience. Quote:
Here's the story...just got in a mess of servos. Hope a few of you still want winches. Plan to get them apart and work on drive gear mods this weekend. Then start assembling a few at a time. One more external part to make still, but hope to start contacting a few of you guys soon about payments and shipping. Sorry about proximity to Christmas. I totally understand if some of you need a little time to get money together. I'll send out emails to those on my list, as I get their winches done. I wont bump anybody from the list if they don't have funds, and they still want one. There will be a winch from this run waiting for them, 'till they're ready. Thanks again. | |

Your welcome, and thank you. Hope your all having a great new year! Fvrr - I put you on the list. I just sent out emails to everyone on the list for this run. I forgot to order something I needed to finish, but shipping will hopefully start the end of this week. If you did not receive an email, and thought you were down for this first run, let me know. Thanks | |
