CTS has been known and appreciated for its willingness to build to a builders specs - any length, # of sections, power. The fee to do this was a modest $34 U.S.

So many builders have availed themselves of this service that it resulted in 20-30 hours of time doing engineering. This is no longer feasible. Therefore, effective after my current order, he fees will be as follows:

Section changes (up or down) will be $100.
Power, model and material changes will be $250.

NOTE - Custom Fees will be charged ONLY on blanks that CTS has not previously built in the past.

If anyone wants a custom blank I suggest that they act now to get on this last order.

Regards,
Herb
