When did you order one? It does take some time for making you one. |

30 weeks delivery time! That isn't even half the time the first series took. |

I ordered it last April, I guess 30 weeks don't mean 30 weeks? There is one guy that has been waiting 17 months and that was in November. |

I know germany companies are shut down for their Holiday thats over a month. Dont know if they follow that. Also I believe there is only 1 guy that does all their tanks. Maybe give them a call. |

Yes Tony does all the work himself ,so that takes time. But you can always send them a email about how the progress is going. |

No German company shuts down for a whole month during holidays. That is b.s. And Holts is a Uk. company http://www.holtworks.co.uk |

I was one of the last to receive my small tank from the first batch, I won't bother with how long it took to arrive, but it was worth the wait. Kept my finish polished so I could show off the tanks construction. A well made thing of beauty with a quality of welding to shout about. There is only one guy and he's a perfectionist. Spend the time squirreling away the cash so that it's less painful when it's finally ready. |

Thanks guys, I have to admit that I have never been very good at waiting. I never thought it would take longer than 30 weeks though, and I never e-mailed until that after that point. But I would like it if they would return e-mails and maybe give updates. That picture helps me remember the reason I went to them, His work is art. Thanks again, Chuck. |

I think the guy must have had something else in mind, just didn't have the skills, maybe a couple cans of Bondo would do it! |
