Spinworthy Flying Lemon - coming early 2025

You heard him, landslide it boys!

In all honesty my vote to send them as is was mostly for feeling the extra time and effort would be burdensome to you. I am also good with waiting and testing the new bearings because, if there’s even a slight chance that it could make it even better, I feel like it’s worth the wait. It just made me feel somewhat greedy to ask the extra of you. That’s just how I am. I already know of you Glen that you want to give the best impression possible because your creations are like your babies. I think you would regret not testing the new bearings, no matter what the outcome.

Farmer McPhee should be the engraving on the red Lemon.

“It’s as red as a stop sign,
It’s as red as a rose!
I can’t have red lemons where yellow fruit grows!
Imagine a world where lemonade’s red!
Where once-yellow cupcakes are crimson instead!
When people bite into a fruit that they chew,
They count on it being the right-colored hue!
Who’d squeeze this red thing in their afternoon tea?
Who’d buy a red lemon from Farmer McPhee?
This lemon must go, its too red to bear!
And so this red lemon… I’ll toss over there!”

I have read that book countless times to my kids. The book is now falling apart.

I can almost recite it word for word.

If we get to a 70/30 split in the poll, I’ll send them in earlier and send on the SS bearings a little later to YYE.

I know everyone is excited and wants it NOW, but I totally get wanting to wait until you’re sure it’s as good as it can be, before sending it into the world. That’s what I’d do, especially since it seems like a true, labor of love.

I have the Donut Chef and most of the Dr. Suess library still rattling around my memory banks…

68%/32% split now…

If we hit the golden 70% for sending them in earlier, I’ll do it.

Right, I’m about to go to bed. When I wake up in the morning, I’m going to check the poll one last time.

The first moment I check it in the morning, if it reads 70% or higher for sending in the Lemons earlier, that is what I will do.

If the vote remains less than 70% in favour of this, I will wait until I have thw SS bearings in my posession.

You have 8 hours.

Goodight!
