We constantly build these things.  But most of our distributors do not carry 
stock on the tower mounts.  

We have offered virtual warehousing so they don’t have to pay for freight on 
heavy items twice, but they don’t take advantage of it.  Last Mile Gear used 
to, but they don’t anymore.  

We don’t build up inventory, we just build to order.  So if we happen to have 
one when a distributor orders it, it can get shipped, else they will wait 3 
weeks.  I purposely keep our e commerce site with very low or zero levels of 
inventory.  It is more designed to drive orders to our distributors.  

At the risk of getting a bunch of them pissed off at me, I will say that 
Streakwave places large stocking orders and they hold stock for the tower 
mounts and all the rest of our stuff.  Thank you Streakwave.

I hate drop shipping.

first, you need to smack people for dropshipping and not holding stock, thats 
the mark of a garbage can vendor, it screws up supply chains and you should let 
me start showing up at their HQs and accidents occurring, sometimes vendors who 
drop ship instead of carrying inventory on hand have problems with their 
buildings gas lines, sometimes theres a leak, sometimes buildings explode, what 
can a guy do... mishaps

but is there a production run planned for these?
