Not only is it made in the USA. It's actually made by me. :) After three manufacturers failed to finish the DaHANGER production, 1/2 of the manufacturing is done here in Kingston NY. This is our massive foam fixture that holds and keeps the part in place while the HD foam hardens and makes a solid part. Making American manufacturing great again is going to be really difficult since most of them have already gone overseas and the few that are left only want the easy big money jobs. As soon as you have to touch parts and do manual...

Kickstarter update #19 Just a quick update. Our tool officially got crated and shipped out.  The whole kitten-caboodle weighed in at 9000 lbs. (the hot runner and gate valves system made her gain some weight)  The boat trip should take about 20 days and then it has to go thru customs and get delivered to our manufacturer in New York. If all goes well we have our tool in our neck of the woods in 4 weeks. (very happy we got this done before the Chinese New Year, mayor delay avoided)  

Instructions manual and hardware kit are almost done. After being a contractor for the last fifteen years there is one thing I hate more than a splinter or a stripped phillips screw. It is that moment when you are ready to do a job and realize that not even one minute into the task you are already missing parts and are starting to plan a trip to the hardware store. One of my main priority is that Shelfie will be shipped as a complete package, with all the needed components to install in either concrete/brick, wood or sheetrock walls. Thank you for waiting so patiently,(Shelfie is coming this fall)Jurgen Beneke
