Website Suggestions
I have a few minor suggestions about your website
1) Please organize your photos into different categories. The
photos would be e easier to navigate if all overlays were grouped
together in some organization and all the carry photos were
grouped together and all the usage shots were grouped together. A
few quick links to the different sections would be most helpful.
2) I find your video on "Boberg XR9 Patent-Pending Feed
Mechanism" to be to short to view. I would appreciate it if you
would put it on a loop so that there were ten cycles back to back
in one video. For example this video of glock functionality
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1VD1D1hLsQ shows several cycles.
3) If its not a trade secret I would love to see your initial
model at work "4-inch long aluminum dummy cartridges being
hand-fed in a vertical fixture the size of an average computer"
There is just something fun about watching scale models of
unusual sizes. 4-inch rounds! How cool is that. I am sure you
have seen this video of a large skeet shoot
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On6M8IC1K-Q&feature=related So if
you ever want to make even bigger scale models, I would love to
watch them at work also.

1) I do have several photo albums that should appear at the top of our "photos" page. I have no way of verifying this because any computer that I am logged in to recognizes me so I am automatically logged in as an administrator, and do not see that same thing that you do. I do agree with you that these photos should be catalogued better. And I need to figure out a clearer way to steer people to the albums.
2) I spent 90 hours on that video (it was all done manually) - the software I had could not articulate this stuff automatically.
I thought about multiplying the frames, but I kind of ran out of gas at the time (Jan 2008). My current CAD program does not have the photo-rendering package (a $6K upgrade), so I am not able to expand the core video at this time. If you like, I can send you either a Powerpoint (in high def, that is already set to "loop" mode in the slide show) or an MPEG that can also be "looped".
3) My 4X model had been "salvaged" about 4 years ago. I am not that sentimental about the stepping stones I use to get to where I'm at. I had considered bringing it to SHOT - it probably would have drawn a crowd, but it was too big and clunky to haul around. Looking back, I probably should have saved it, but I just didn't have the space to store it.

I second #2 above. If not a loop, no "share" screen overlay, but allow the viewer to restart the video as many times as they want. But a loop would be best.

Ppt file with slide show attached. Let me know if you also want an MPEG (I will have to dig it up)
