Hey everyone!
I apologize for not being more active but as promised, 2014 is going to be the year that the NB gets RM love. To start off, here is a prototype ring collar that i created for the NB. I haven't decided how much to price this yet but would like to hear some feed back on both aesthetics, and what price you guys would be comfortable paying. Here are the pics:

That's in the price range that I'm thinking it should be priced.

I wonder if you could make a matching button, also turned from billet? One thing to consider: in countries like Japan, where hazards are used all day long to thank people (not kidding--I've used mine so often the black paint's come off), that ring is a bit tall. A lower profile that allows easier access might be useful.

thanks for the comments.
PFunk, you read my mind. I actually do have a piece that will be going over the original switch to match the collar. The size of the ring is intentionally taller to make it stand out. Otherwise it tends to be just another ring in a dash full of rings. But if you want a shorter size one, that's not a problem at all.

Just submitted a whole bunch of files to the machine shop this morning. I will be getting quotes on them by monday so keep an eye out on the RM site and FB page for updates. Im skipping this yrs vendorship due to personal reasons (just got engaged!!! :) so I will respectfully not promote on MR until I pay my dues for next yr. However I will continue to provide support for my products.
