Reproduction tempest spinner pcb

I have all the parts to build these, just need to order the pcbs. I wanted to see what kind of market there is for them. Target retail price will be $19.95ea. Let me have a show of hands from everyone interested in buying one.
 
$20 is the max im going to charge for them. If there is enough interest I will do a bigger run which will knock the cost down some. If I run these I will do 100 minimum and up to 300 units.
 
I'll take one.. this is one of those parts... when it goes you are searching forever for a replacement.
 
I ended up selling my Tempest and Dokert sold me one of his so I won't need one. I really doubt you'll have any problem getting enough orders though...seems like everyone needs one for their Tempest at some point
 
I just picked up a pair of Tempests and don't know if the spinners work yet or not, but I will probably need at least one for a backup.
 
I have 9 of these available now and just started building the first run. Price is $23 shipped each in the states. +$17 for each additional board.

Does this include the spinner knob? I've seen several repro's of these over the years, and unless the feel and weight of the knob is exactly the same as the original, you will have a problem. What really needs to be repro's (again as they were done along time ago) is the rebuild kits for the spinners. I bought one along time ago and it made mine spin like "butta".

these are the 'optic boards' or spinner pcb's whatever you want to call them. Not the spinner unit.
