I've been asked at multiple events if I'm planning to make a kit version of the Cactus. Right now the answer is "Probably." I would love to be able to make a kit version of the Cactus for those interested. Please be patient, I've got a lot of work to do before we're at that stage of development. I have no intention of selling anything until I have a design I'm confident in. I'm talking with friends who have produced and sold kits about what's involved. How many people want a Cactus? How many kits would that be? How much would they cost? These are questions I'm working towards answering. As of right now, I've got atleast a dozen interested parties. If you are interested in a kit when they're ready, send me an email to let me know. |
