OK then, (A) is there a timetable for when he plans on having such a fixture ready?
he isn't planning, i am. any time in the next... 4 months is fine. nothing could ever really be "planned" because there was no point [with a previously unknown and unknowable time on the critical path].
and (B) Do you have drawings for the fixture that you intend to give to him?
no. i met mike a year ago in shenzhen and discussed the need for a test rig, not the actual details *of* a test rig.
Or do you need help with the design? Yes, in this case, I'm offering mechanical fixture design help if needed.
hmm.... i tell you what [and importantly, why] - i feel it would be best to let mike's guy come up with something based on a "requirements specification". that way he feels "needed and trusted" if you know what i mean.
if he ballses it up on the other hand... :)
i have!! about six times!
I've been on the mailing list since May of 2017 and I don't recall seeing any direct calls for help in that department.
the list's being going since... 2011.
Not saying that you haven't, but I'm just saying that although I've read all the posts and all of the updates since that date, I've not seen a call for help in that area, because if I did, I probably would have stepped up and volunteered. New people join all the time, and even more people lurk, so consider asking again.
i forgot about that. whoops :)
