Any interest in 700B Handle group buy (minimum $150 buy in for 2 pair)

[Gepetto]

I just measured them not even close for the 4” spacing. I will go with Lee’s comments

Metric, 100mm or 3-15/16"

Why are there those two holes?

The handles on my 700B are likewise and all this time, since 1990, I thought it was a blunder. To me, it looked like holes were drilled in the wrong spot then holes got drilled in the right spot and those ones were tapped.

Gary, the smaller set of holes are there for the purpose of machining (they have to have a way to hold them in the CNC mill)

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

They emailed me to ask if there was an issue with doing the other holes.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

I just packed 9 boxes of handles... Doing labels now.... PITA

Perry, I'm sure I can speak fore everybody that we appreciate the trouble you go through to make this possible, having been there and done that a lot of time can be burned arranging all the various things that go with it. Thanks again....

 

[Bradrock]

They really do look great.

 

[62vauxhall]

Yeah, no kidding thanks a lot!

And understood re the extra holes. Gonna go shopping now for some nice cap screws - maybe an allen key socket job.

 

[NavLinear]

Agreed - thanks Perry. Those handles look terrific.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

All handles are in possession of the USPS and should be received by Friday.... Let me know if there are any issues.

Sutton is THE ONLY one who did not reply with a shipping address. If you talk to him tell him to pm me...

I received mine yesterday and they look even nicer in person. Many thanks!

 

[jbeckva]

Got mine today. Thanks very much Perry for putting this together!

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Excellent... Glad they made it in good shape... I think they turned out nice too

Anybody heard from Sutton????

 

[FredR]

Mine came today. Look great! Thanks Perry!

 

[Gepetto]

Thanks Perry, got mine too. They look great.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

It's one big Handle Extravaganza..... WTF???

 

[Geegz]

Mine showed up also, very nice work on these, beautiful satin finish.

Thanks very much Perry for the effort and attention to detail on these!

Ed researched this exhaustively years ago.....

I have some original handles and ther came with a sticker that said " Product of England"...

Lee,
