That is too bad. I hope that someone else picks up the trail, because while compression fittings are nice and all, not all sizes fits all blocks and whatnot.

i still have them, just no one seems serious enough to buy them..
no one seems to understand that these are a custom product
and there is a cost.. I did this for you guys and no one really
manned up to buy any from me.. if any of you are serious
i will PM you the cost per clamp and we can go from there.

for those that i never gotten around to PMing, or have missed i
am truly sorry. I did not intentionally ignore any of you and i really
did try to get back at all of you.

but put yourself in my position. hard enough as it is to get something
like this done but to be rejected by all who said they were serious?
i just took a break from it all.

again, if you are truly serious give me a PM and we can talk there.

For all the excitment these generated it's suprising noone came thru and bought 'em.:confused:
I had been waiting for these for 7/16" tube, but I think I'll go 1/2" just to make sure I get some of these cool items:up:

What is the price of a clamp?

Provided they are not overly expensive I'm up for four (I've converted to compression, but the fill and drain has only plugs so it would be nice with these instead of regular clamps).

Very , very Nice and I would definitely be Inclined to use and buy those clamps! Biggest draw back to using Barbs is the lack Style for the Clamps but those add some really nice Flair to what would normally be the Ugliest part of using Barbs vs Compression Fittings.

Very Nice:clap:

They look awesome, but I really hear you on how difficult it is (especially on the wallet) when you try to do something new and there isn't much support. If I didn't have compressions, then I would definitely buy the silver ones. In fact, I am going to PM you anyway, for my friends PC...

i forgot about these sorry evil

they just kinda got swept under the rug/ the forum pages and left my mind

I know this has already been suggested and probably isn't the best decision for small scale production, but a reseller would be a great option as then you don't have to custom make them for a person :)

When I first saw this thread I figured these would be at Petra's and all the other fine retailers that carry our goods for us in no time. Such a clean elegant look vs. worm clamps or zip ties.

Why all the secrecy of how much they are? Are they really so price prohibitive that no retailers will pick them up?

If they're reasonably priced I'd be interested in a dozen or so.

Because it's against the rules to make sales in this section, and it's already in a greyish zone.

Yes, I think this would help immensely. Most likely the lack of sales was due primarily to the difficulty in getting pricing and placing an order. I assume that no retailers were interested because the price is likely pretty high to begin with and there's not much room for profit margin for them. And probably the second biggest problem is the size limitation. It's understandable though that you can't make a batch for every tubing size available.

Anyway, if you were to set up a simple website or even just a FS thread, I think this would help your cause greatly.
