Someone asked the same thing on facebook (maybe you?). Here was my reply there:
Still waiting on more machining. I worked as a design engineer in the tech industry for 25 years. If I had my own 3D printing and machining capability this would have been a 2 week job...from first design to being ready for production, not a 5 month job. I volunteered to do the CAD work, everything else is outside my control. /shrug

No, it wasn't me; I'm not on Facebook. Don't want to bug you, I'm just eager to get a set. Thanks for the update.

The left side machined prototype was mailed to me. I might be able to test fit it in a few days.

Sorry for the delays, super frustrating for me as well.

Bump for a good project. I think this will be the way to go over that one companies versys esque wide bars or a simple pricey spacer.

I did email Murphs about info on this setup last week. Oscar replied back stating they were deep into the project but didn’t comment about any height or changes at this time. So maybe in a week or two they may have specifics. I’m hoping it better than a half inch change.

I sent CAD to Murphs and his machinist ~1.5 months ago to have a 2nd set machined up after there were problems with the first set.

I've heard or seen nothing from them since. And frankly, this process has been frustrating as hell.

If any of you want progress I suggest bugging him about it, because the ball is in their court, dead as a doornail. As I recall someone else on this forum was working with them and something similar happened, I can't recall exactly.

I have spoken with Murph. The Machinist should be underway this week on the prototype. I highly suggest anyone who is interested to contact Murph's and let them know.

Done! I just sent him an email. Thanks.
