And this is the one thing you choose to post. Let's get this into the knowledge base, pronto.
Perhaps what we can learn from threads that go sideways like this is that if your only response to the original post is something tangential and barely related, don't post that. Or start your own thread. And when you feel the criticism for not heeding this advice, maybe stop digging the hole deeper with more words.
I appreciate the sentiment to support this website but not as a thin excuse to keep muddying a thread with noise.

Half a century spent proving “it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”
Only the great Zane the almighty owner of bcp can call a bs thread out or bs posters. No worries I figured that out along time ago, well that and the peanut gallery bullshit.
Get your plane done and stop posting bolt by bolt photos.

So just how much DO you have to drink before posting that seems like a good idea?
I'm just yanking your chain SB...I actually agree with your previous post. But the fact that you posted about why you never post is somewhere between ironic and ridiculous.
One thing that's guaranteed in any society: if you wont laugh at yourself, others will.

Nice edit zzz after I posted.
Every time I feel like I should add to the community some wanker dissects someone's post for what it's not.
That's why
Your right you won't hear much from me, it's too bad because there is a lot of info and experience on the forum. However there are 4-5 that ruin it for anyone on the fringe of posting or sharing.
Thanks

Zane, fair 'nuf.
These Grypmats are really useful, beyond use on top of a wing...think snowmachine seat, frozen roof eve, or any other off-camber slick surface that sucks to either fall from, or drop tools and small parts off.
I like that this guy is making good products and responding to feedback from his target group; hope he gets some business out of this exercise! (I'm not getting paid for this...)

Not 100% sure, but if the above is pointed in my direction please accept my apology for thinking in the manner I did. Certainly won't make that error again.

Back to the Grypmat...
I like it! I've pitched in and am looking forward to getting them.
Looks like the masses agree as his kickstarter funding has far exceeded his goal.

WOW/ BITCH< BITCH<BITCH??????
Looks like a great product, has 34k headed towards his 10k needs, has outdone his hopes on that, should be enough to build the next mold??
You guys who kind of piss each other off no matter what is said, why don't you chill a little bit!!
I'll add to AS comments, they are great except for one complaint from me is that they charge you to ship every item even though they say it's this much when you order!! I know it is not in stock and they have to ship in different boxes!! But they should be up front about it!!
Shipping is a big PITA for lots of outfits!!
But it should not be a money maker for them!! Just my opine.
This is just to some vendors!! Why do you not ship USPS?? 29.95 UPS or Fed Ex and 9.95 for priority for one little dodad that weighs .05 OZ!!!! This is especially bad in remote AK as UPS and Fed Ex usually give it to the USPS when it get to Anchorage and comes ByPass mail anyway in a week or so!!
OK Thread HyJack over as well as my Sunday morning rant, I'm headed back to the coffee pot!!
Have a Great Day!!

A little more threadjack...ike M6RV6, I've gotten great service from Spruce but don't like the high S&H charges. A buddy of mine gave me a tip- when you order from Spruce online, there's a little button on the shopping cart page that says check shipping options. When I've done so, the lowest priced option is usually USPS Priority or Express (can't remember which).

Cessna Skywagon -- accept no substitute!
Locking this thread, as it has unfortunately gone too far off course and is doing no one any favors, least of all this Grypmat guy.
