Video: Stage Junk's new Flat Focus tool

[Jay Ashworth]

Two late updates:

StageSpot's website is *still* broken.

And I know this because mine walked, and I need to buy another. Full Compass has them but their website steadfastly refused to let me scroll down far enough to click Buy.

And TechCloset wants $14 shipping on an $18 wrench.

No. Just no.

Who's actually selling these these days?

No: three. StageJunk's website times out.

How can such a useful too be so hard to buy?

A little bit more expensive but Stage Spot has them:

I bought that and a ratcheting tool from them at USITT this year as they were the only place onsite with ratcheting.

PNTA still lists it, don't know if it's in stock, worth a call.

There was mention here that Rob has changed jobs and is now touring a lot. Also his website got hacked and he hasn't gotten around to rebuilding, more interested is spending his limited time trying to get caught up with existing orders.

Maybe he should outsource....

Maybe he should outsource....

I dont think he personally machines them either, it shouldn't be hard to find someone else to fulfill orders.

This seems to be a problem with small time operators, they come up with a better product and then life gets in the way. Another example is O. A Windsor.

I got one from them 6 months ago? no issues at all.

PNTA is the local dealer for me and @JChenault. Have no fears about ordering from them and my guess is if it's on their site it's in stock.

PNTA is where I got my first one; they are in fact out of stock.

At least, I assume that's what "there's a quantity wanted selector on our other item pages, but not here" means.
