L100 QUADRAFLEX FOAM GRILLE updates?

[KAYERCPA]

This is my first post so please bear with me if not handling it well.

I have been fortunate in acquiring a really nice pair of 1974 vintage L100s. As many others out there I need the grilles.

Since the L100 have been Reissued I can't help but wonder if we could now get those hard to find grilles right from the factory.

So I am just looking for any insight any of you might have on this, or any other current sources for the Grilles. It appears to me that the sources I know of have dried up, or are no longer in business.

Thank You all for your responses.

Sincerely,

Karl

I too wonder where the ebay sellers of the foam inserts went. Maybe they will come back. Looks likw I missed my chance to buy the burnt orange ones - so cool.

Hi Karl,

The old and new L100's are a different size. 14x24 for the old vs.15 3/8 x 25 2/16 for the new.

As you might well imagine, producing the L100 Quadrex grilles is quite painstaking and tiresome after making so many. So I got away from making them for so long I forgot some of the techniques to make PERFECT ones. So right now I have several sets of what could be called "seconds". They have minor cosmetic imperfections hardly visible except on close inspection and am offering them at $110/pair (all colors but orange) shipped in USA.

Note that the imperfections show least done in black (best choice to hide imperfections) - they are more noticeable (on close examination) in the standard colors of brown, blue or orange (orange are $140/pair) so black is a good choice - and easiest to do! Pic attached of one before painting.

Not sure when or if I will ever again try producing perfect ones - worn out , getting too old, and getting absolutely NO help with this business - so is better to do easier things to make enough to maintain my poverty (below!) living status.

I have about 7-8 pairs of these - will take a good offer on them all to clear them out - even unpainted and you can do the painting yourself.

Sonofagun has supplied me with two sets of L200 grills (cats) - and they are indistinguishable from the originals, and am considering a 3rd set just for the heck of it.

I'm being inundated with inquiries for these and will get to them again when I catch up with current orders. Still can't get help of any kind so :banghead:.

This coming month I will be working on setting up improved methods for making these but current circumstances make it difficult. Great opportunity for someone to partner with me and make lots of $$ - serious inquiries by PM are welcome. I am very flexible on partnership terms.
