    Thumbs up Pem-Tech is Back!!

    The rumors of our demise have been greatly exaggerated.....
    Or at least slightly misrepresented...

    Pem-Tech is back!



    While digging in the storage building this morning it happened.
    It was wondrous.....
    While digging through boxes from our old shop it happened...
    The heavens opened..
    The angels sang....
    And lo' there were rocket parts upon the face of the day.

    Those are a few of the backorders that our wonderful customers have been so patiently waiting for.
    We are back and accepting orders!


    We anticipate a maximum one week wait for almost all kits.
    Thanks to everyone for your support and encouragement.
    The packing gnomes and delivery llamas are warmed up and await you orders!!
    (Please be warned that getting through initially may be difficult, I put the dog in a dress and put him on the order desk, until I have time to take over.)

    Thank you all for your support and gracious pleasantries.
    It is good to be back in the saddle again.

    Your orders are flowing in and we'll get them out ASAP. Matter of fact the dog has performed so well on the order desk, he has been assigned there permanently. And keeping him the dress is a given.

    WooHoo!

    Layne, It's great to see an official announcement. (I guessed this might be the case when I got your email the other evening.)
    Also, thanks for being so responsive even while you were not "officially" open.

    Looking forward to using the Kraken for my L1 cert. flight. I'll definitely be sharing build/flight photos.

    Woot! indeed. Actually, that news is worth at least two of them.



    So I take it that there will be no more dinners consisting of reheated llama pot pies from here on then?

    I am sorry. I have been trying to hold my tongue, but I cannot hold it any longer. This is a terrible, terrible thing. It took all my strength and all my willpower just to avoid buying a Pem-Tech kit. I mean, it was a major struggle. Then they shut down, and I thought "whew, I made it". I was relaxed once again and felt like I could finally move on. And now they go and do this? I just don't think I have the strength to make it much longer...
    Have fun,
